It's a great day!

Well, today we are decorating for Halloween & Fall.  And I don't know who is more excited, me or my little man...hehehe!

Did I mention that I just LOVE the fall season?

So between the decorating and watching football (and some sewing) - it's turning out to be a great day!  Hope everyone is enjoying their day too!

What a lunch hour!

It was last week when I told you about me & 2 of my friends (Melinda & Teresa (I got permission to use their real names)) were going to do a Halloween wall hanging together.  Well, the ball has started to roll!  We were able to lay out our fabric the way we wanted (well most of us did)...

By doing this on our lunch our, with no interuptions (ie...kids, tv, phone, ect.), helped us shorten the time we will spend on this project at home.  I mean half of the project is planning...is it not?  So now we can start sewing...hopefully we can at least commit to 10-15 minutes a night? Every other day?  Anyhoo, I figure we should be done by the end of Sept. - if not sooner.  That is the plan for now...I am soooo freakin' excited to get this done, I just can't stand it!  I love Halloween!  And I know, deep (real deep) down, they feel the same way!

Halloween themed magazine covers...

is the sign that fall is coming!  I was in charge of doing the grocery shopping this past Sunday.   I admit it - the duty belongs to my husband & little man.  And it looks like he will be taking back the responsibility this coming weekend.  YEAH!  Anyhoo, I couldn't resist getting this (it was not on the list)...

it's a weakness of mine.  I love to see everything & anything Halloween.  I'm giddy just thinking about fall, the leaves on the trees changing colors, 'seasonal' pumpkin ice cream, cool weather ...you get the picture.  (In my opinion, IT'S THE MOST BESTEST SEASON!)  And yes you guessed it...fall quilt projects!  I can't wait to work on the 'Crazy Jack' wall hanging.  I'm hoping to get it completed (with a few friends) by the end of Sept. so we can hang them up Oct. 1st! I can feel the excitement of completing those wall hangings!!!  And I'm sure my friends feel the same way! (wink, wink!).
