Hello there...It's the middle of the night as I am writing this.
Ever have one of those nights when your creative juices are flowing and you can't settle down and fall asleep? As the holidays approach I find that I am filled with so many new ideas for sewing, decorating and gift giving.
I'm glad it's Veteran's Day. I will be able to sleep in.
"Night time is really the best time to work.
All the ideas are there to be yours...
because everyone else is asleep."

My husband's Grandmother hand carved this darling wide eyed owl.
When she was a young girl in Pleasant Hill, Tennessee, the children
were taught to handcarve at school.
My...How times have changed!
God's Love Forever Shines
Beautifully handcarved by my husband's grandmother,
Annie Grant Keeling
1908-1982
There's nothing better at 2 am than an oatmeal chocolate chip cookie and a hot cuppa tea!
I designed this "Candy Corn " little quilt.
The buttons are made from Fimo clay.
The quilting method I used is called
Foundation Piecing.
I captured this colorful display while driving home the other day.
Sadly, the leaves are all down after the strong winds we had last week.
I awakened to snow this morning.
Thank you for keeping me company...
my wonderful blogging pals.
I'm finally getting sleepy!
I hope you have a great day. Be sure and thank a Veteran for his or her dedicated service to our nation.
God Bless You
and May God continue to Bless America!
