....and a pleasant Tuesday evening it is....
Mr. Iggy has been setting in the windowsill of our Keeping Room,
keeping watch for the house-wrens and purple finch that like to visit our backyard feeder...
{{little does he know, they're on to him ~ and only visit whence they don't see him!}}

I have been making slow-progress on my Autumn stitchers challenge piece,
but it is progress...
see?
I've added wording,
pumpkins, acorns & a crescent moon:
I've even begun to stitch a little Homeplace down the far bottom corner....

Hannah loves vintage, quirky, circa 1980's clothing,
so the Goodwill provides much of that,,,

we do, however, seem to gravitate towards trendy jewelery....but that's ok...

Hmmm, your challenge piece is looking really good! Thanks for letting us know about your header piece. You really should publish that one....I'm just saying. :)
Iggy is adorable! Her profile (particularly her face) sure makes me wonder if she has some purebred in her?
Love your blog, too! I used to cross stitch but seeing your antiqued pieces makes me want to take it up again.
Your Challenge is looking Wonderful !!!
Iggy, you are wonderful; you look very Egyptian!
I love Iggy!! What a sweet little face. Looking forward to your new releases.
Love your challenge piece progress...that lettering is oh, so, Salem-ish!! And thanks for the Iggy-fix...he's such a cutie!! And, hey - what size is Hannah? Maybe she'd like to shop in my closet!! ;o) Smiles & Hugs ~ Robin
