harvest continues...

...the harvest is in full swing this year

and can be found in the shop.

 

Reason being....I am unemployed.

My day job was eliminated and I find sewing has always been my therapy, especially during stressful times.  Like when I no longer have a job to go to.  My children and family has been very supportive and encouraged me to fall back on my sewing as a way to reassess life while looking for work.  I was able to enjoy family visiting last week since I was home, we cooked, ate, visited, shopped, enjoyed my great niece and all her antics......
....now I sew.

wow........2 posts in 1 day.

After seeing that beautiful orange M&M I made 

the time to dye several chenille bedspreads today 

in several shades of orange.

Once out of the dryer, folded 

and stacked next to the woven fabrics that will soon be pumpkins

I just had to take photos. 

2013 pumpkin harvest.......

You also see a couple pieces of tea stained chenille from last year.

There will be more..........

NOTE:: The chenille spreads I use in my pumpkin making are what are called cutter or so well loved that they are no longer usable as bed spreads because of the stains and/or rips.  I do have several of those good ones that will not be cut until they've had many years of use.

ta-da

the quilt is in the shop.

Sewing is my de-stressor and

M&M's....of course.

How cute to have found a heart shaped

pumpkin orange M&M in the bag. 

That leads me to this years

pUmPkin harvest which will start soon.

Keep an eye out in the shop for them.
