~ November came ~

 
 
 
Hello Friends & Folk ~
...and a happy November Friday to us all...

ah November.

“November comes, and November goes. With the last red berries and the first white snows.”
- Clyde Watson

“It looked like the world was covered in a cobbler crust of brown sugar and cinnamon.”
- Sarah Addison Allen

the way the light now slants, and how time has both pushed us back and forward at the same time.
clocks spinning backwards, mornings coming earlier...

November is actually my (2nd) favorite month, with it's predecessor being my favorite.
I love the chill in the evening air and the promise of stitching by our piping woodstoves 
while wearing soft, thick socks.

November to me, means:
celebrating my beloved's birthday,
gathering family closer for the Thanksgiving Holiday &
preparing for Christmas and New Year.
...a busy end to a busy year but this month still holds promises of slowing sown & reflection.

I hope your November brings your heart peace & plenty.

In the News:
I've released another one of my cross stitch 'littles',
this one is called "Cookie Klaus" and I think I love her the most.
{she is actually Little Nick's wife, but there are other member's in the Klaus-family,
{such as good old Cinder Klaus hanging out in his red stocking.}
 
 
 
 here is a collage of all of the 'littles' that are now available in my Etsy shop...
top row, left to right are:
Little Nick, Cookie Klaus, Cinder Klaus
middle row, left to right:
Robin Birdwell, Parade Sam & Carrot Top
bottom row, left to right:
Lucky O'Greene, Bees Knees and Witch Hazel
 

I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

We are getting ready for our Christmas Open House & Preregistered Stitch In
here at the shop/studio on Saturday December 7th 2024 from 10-4:00
 
please note: the Stitch In IS FULL....
{there is a cancellation list filling up as well} and if any seats become available,
 the folks at the very top of the cancellation list will be contacted first.

we really do try our best to make everyone happy at our events...
it's impossible for us offer  'drop in' stitchers a seat if you have not been registered.
and we thank you for understanding that.
 

see you soon!

Blessings from the Farm

I am a complete sucker for your littles! I'm not keeping up though...I just finished little Witch Hazel (just the stitching). I'm going to have to work in the Christmas ones asap. Your musings and thoughts on November gave me pause. I used to feel similarly about it but, as I have gotten older, it has lost some of its enchantment for many reasons. I need to find its joy again. ~Robin~
