I keep vowing to do better as a blogger and then falling behind again. It was a full canning season this fall with a huge apple crop, also pears and making relish of the green tomatoes after putting the garden to bed. Not trying to say I didn’t have time, just didn’t take time, I’m afraid. Here’s just a few of the apples canned and frozen. Not to mention eaten both raw and in a pie! And the relish which will be nice in potato and tuna salad next summer!
But I did finally get the yarn I ordered so have been weaving more squares with the Shawl In A Ball yarn. And now it’s nearing holiday season so have been making a few little things for the FireBelle’s fundraiser sale. I donated a couple of 4″ looms to be made up into a basket. But I got the tree ‘bug’ that a lot of other’s have also gotten.
And I also made up a few little needle books & some poinsettia pins and a couple tiny socks both woven and knitted. People will be looking for stocking stuffers, too.
I have a couple more ideas tho it remains to be seen if I get them done in time.
In any case, I hope you are all getting those leaves raked up before the white stuff starts falling. At least I hope it’s going to start falling, so far not even a good frost here. But lots of pretty leaves!
So… Wishing you all a great Family Thanksgiving! And for those who don’t have their family close, Blessings for you as well!

The little looms are fun. I like how the red turned out “bumpy” looking. Enjoy fall😊

I love the Christmas trees, Mom. I did a lot of searching around looking for a tree to fit our new place and kid-free life style. It’s good to see new options. Now if you can do that in one about 3 ft tall…
Love ya!
