The end of Nonsoon

 Yes, this has been another Nonsoon...Monsson seems to be a miss this year. We nowhere touched the rain. So now we are officially into Autumn. The holiday season. Of course this is not the usual season anywhere with the virus still hanging overhead. We have been healthy here. Hope all of you are also. Masks and distance.... 

I have kept busy...


I made this table topper.... with some change. It is the 10 minute table runner. Usually it is narrower and longer but I wanted to use the fabric without cutting so this is shorter and wider! The metal bucket is full of cinnamon pinecones and then the autumn flowers. The flowers seem to soften the potential overpowering fragrance. 

I have finished the first embroidery block for the quilted runner SAL. Needs pressing and trimming and then the fabric pieces cut to form a block. Today I will trace block 2. 

Tomorrow is my flu shot. A follow-up from the injections. Happy to report that most of the pain is gone. If you have any arthritis you know it is never completely gone, but I will take less pain. 

I have asked The Brother Alan to make me something else..... and he said yes. Today we will get a start. It has been nice having him around this week (on vacation). Murphy will certainly miss him. They have worked in the garage a few times which is play space for Murphy. At the moment however, Murphy is restless. He is going in and out (thank goodness for the magic screen) an under the sofa carrying bones and his squeaky


 toy. This is what we see! He is getting almost too big to get under and out. Well, my friends, stay safe and healthy. Thank you for your kind words and for your friendship.

Beautiful table topper! We got our flu shots last week. I'm so ready for cooler temps. I get VERY tired of artificial environment (AC) and am ready to open up the windows.

The table runner is lovely, very seasonal!
My MiL had her flu shot, I'm not usually eligible for one being too young but this year they have lowered the age limit so I might actually get one.

That table runner looks great, love the colours! I'm looking forward to seeing the embroidered blocks.
