So, I decided to take a walk instead of shopping which is what I had planned on doing after moving SnowWhite. Still no colorful trees here as you can see with this peek-a-boo photo of the harbor.
There are leaves on the sidewalk...but then I think that there are always leaves on the sidewalks here...summer, fall, winter and spring...
This ceramic pumpkin caught my eye. I haven't seen one like it before...
And, of course, there are still beautiful flowers...
I think apple picking is going to be this weekend's adventure. I would love some fresh apples. I love all sorts of apples, especially the sweet but tart ones. Honeycrisp, Jonagold and Fuji are a few of my favorites. I hope to try out RubyFrost which is a new variety.
It will be fun to see some color although no one is predicting a particularly brilliant season this year...it's been too warm. I am sure that when I finally make it to Vermont next week there won't be much color. But, like I said before, I usually go for my annual visit to the Bennington Museum, the color is a bonus.
Today I am deciding and making a centerpiece for the Holiday Party. I need twelve, one per table so I don't want anything too hard to make, but I really wanted it to be colorful. I am thinking of a fabric basket. The simple type which begins as a finished square with batting, two colorful sides and some quilting to make it a bit stiff. After an hour...that's all it took to cut, quilt and sew this basket. Think I can do eleven more in time for the party...
I did make another hand puppet for the Holiday Charity. It's kind of scary...
Oh, and we couldn't get enough folks to do the talent show so we are going to have a short skit...now I need to get busy and write one!!!!
Hope you enjoyed your visit here...
Talk to you later...
