~ Tuesday Morning Musings ~


 Hello Friends & Folk!
and a happy blustery October Tuesday to you all!

Definitely my kind of weather,
but then again...
I am just a little Yankee farm-witch aren't I? 

the days & nights are getting cooler 
and the leaves have finally begun to resemble the season they are in...
we are in need of rain badly here though, 
and I continue to set bowls of water out for my fur, feather and insect friends
 in need of a drink or three ~

October is my very favorite month of all!


Saturday my Tribe was here in the Studio ~
there is never a dull moment when we gather...
we stitch, bead, hook & eat,
between laughter and outrageous outbursts 
of silliness that only a tribe member can understand lol!

Anita brought along a potful of heartwarming white chicken chili and toppings,
Nancy B made us a delicious batch of carrot/cardamom soup ~
Joan made raisin custard pie, and Nancy B also made her owl cupcakes!


one thing leads to another...
because we get inspired to make so many things!
an impromptu bead class had a few of us {me included} working on a new bracelet
and digging through jars of broken and salvageable jewelry parts ~

 
the only sane tribe member, is in the very background ~ LOL Sharon!

I'm back to doing embroidery ~ 
putting aside the uncounted cross stitch for now...
and working on new patterns, techniques and designs.

this little 2" x 2-1/2" Santa is in my hoop today:
 
 



watching these come to life before my eyes...
layer upon layer of thread and tiny stitches ~
this will be a finished brooch with a beaded edge!


What are you all working on?
autumn/halloween or have you shifted to winter/christmas?
are you hooking? stitching or punching?
do tell ...

Enjoy the rest of your day,
I hope to be back here with a finish in a few days.
Blessings from the Farm 
~ Lori
