fall in virginia

sweet autumn, you pass way to quickly for me...

paint + craft

Along with the craft show, I have picked up the paint brush again..a batch of WIP's all oil on canvas (my fav right now) and all based on biblical or folktales as subjects. Hope you are enjoying a nice weekend.

the fleeting season

I have another craft show on Sat., which, if I had my act together, I would be getting ready for..however, Fall, above all other seasons, seems like the briefest, most fleeting of them all. I can hardly sit still, and need to get out in it, before it all blows away, as it seems to overnight. Of course, a little companionship is welcome.

If you are near Fredericksburg VA this Sat. drop by and say Hi!

On a beautiful autumn day...



I did! I hope you did too!

The wonder of democracy..

ready

We went from 85 to like 65 today, finally! This is starting a pretty busy time around here, I am in some craft shows, which I enjoy, so I'm taking a small break to post some bad pictures, sorry! Anyway, I always look forward to being at these events, but the prep is tiring. Hope you have a lovely weekend..

Some knitted goodies, scarves and shawls, and a few small quilts waiting to be tagged..

early fall

The last hot gasp of summer, fall is here at last..

fall seeds + sketch

I love pods, seeds, berries and rose hips kind of things. The garden is in never ending shedding season right now, squirrels are frantic, and the cricket song is quite urgent, cool weather is almost upon us. I can't step out with out some leave, or seed underfoot, all just waiting for that right environment to take root.

Also a sketch in ink and watercolor from my sketchbook..

lots of color

Well, I think I'm going to live..still not 100% but a lot better! Thanks for the well wishes.. I've been sitting and crocheting a bit w/Noro Kureyon, a yarn some love (me) and some hate. It's not the snuggliest yarn, but color- wise, it's the bomb. Some granny action:

Hope you are enjoying the early Fall, where you are.
