Where Did October GOOOOOO????

Where did October go? I can't believe we're deeply into November already! 

Saturday the 26th, we had this in the driveway. 

Turns out Hubs has pneumonia and got to stay in the hospital for 3 days, He's home and doing much better now.
 

This little fella spent some time at our house......

Awww, so cute reading his book.....

Turning the page.....

Oh, that's enough of that! Done reading!!!

Such a cutie in his little overalls.

And the whole crew went Trick or Treating. 

Two bears and teens being something....as teens are known to do.

Still Getting Things Done

 

I did this today-Early Voting in the drive through line! It was kind of an odd thing to be voting in the car, but it went real smooth and there are lots of folks available to keep the line moving.

Glad to get my vote in. Now just waiting for the crazy campaign ads to get done!

These guys were hanging around here so I snapped a few pictures.

I just love to see these two together.

And it's that time of year again-time to get costumes ready for Halloween!

I've got fluff all over the house!

This year we are going to have two bears.

One big bear and one little bear.

Big bear....

For some reason Ringo is just crazy about these fuzzy costumes!

And little bear.

Aren't they just the cutest!

And I should mention that we got a new water faucet installed on the East side of the house. 

We had the plumber out and they got it done in a jiffy and for $430!

Iris is checking out the situation. 

This One Is Done....I Think

 So I had trouble with this design. I posted on the FB Group page for Quilt path and here's what happened....

Well Thanks ! SO I was already pretty deep into this design-I wasn't waiting all day  ya know!!

So every place there are those blue dots, it would stop and start over, so I was reaching under and cutting the bobbin thread while the design moved to it's next location.

And I got through the dang thing and I like the design but....

As I was working to find a solution, I ran the pattern and then when I was all done I went and ripped out all the extra stitching! What else could I do!?

Look at all those wrong lines of stitching!

It's DONE!

I like the batik fabrics. Most of them are from the All Iowa Shop Hop this past summer. And the pattern is from the Shop Hop magazine from 2019. 

Here's the pattern.

And here's the back! Iris is helping.....

I like the 1980's vibe.

It looks great, but that stitching is going to be the death of me. I have a feeling I'm going to need to go in and re-stitch a few of those ends.
