While Gavin napped yesterday, I did a little fall updating.
I put the green polka-dot sheers back on the front window -I found them several years ago at a thrift store for $1 :)
and the yard sale green tablecloth replaced the red and white checked summer cloth. |

Aren't these doilies wonderful?
My mom, The Queen of Crochet, made them several years ago |

I think they look like candy corn.
Have you all seen the candy corn crafts that are the rage this year?
I searched for candy corn on Pinterest and found 80848 pins for candy corn!
Mom was way ahead of the times when she crocheted these. |

A few weeks ago, I saw on Elizabeth's blog, that she had some pretty colored glass up in a window very similar to the window over our front door.
I put my grandmothers glass paperweights up in ours and they really look pretty when their is bright light coming through. |

| oops - looks like I need to add clean dead bugs off windows to my to-do list! |

I sewed up this new handbag for me this week.
The bird fabric was a preprinted apron panel, also found at a thrift store.
I used a free internet pattern that I have used before
Artsy Craftsy Babe's Pleated Tote
it is an oldie but goodie pattern, very easy to sew up and does not require a huge amount of fabric.

Jeff's got a cold but has gone to work anyway.
Both grandbabies are here today.
I've got some sirloin cubes thawing to make beef stew in the crock pot for supper.
And son Jimmy is coming over this evening so I can hem the pants of a new suit he just got.
What are you doing today?
