It was colder this morning than yesterday.  We had to take the car to the mechanic for a bit of work so it was early, barely light and cold...right around 39-40.  The high again today is only in the mid 60's.  Tomorrow starts another warming trend though.

So I did finally make it to the library to get my card.  It's a small library but connected to several other libraries in the county.  

I also made it to the closest quilt store...The Village Fabric Shoppe.  A tiny little place run by a woman named Diane who was absolutely lovely.  I picked up six fat quarters for my latest fabric creation...

at extremely reasonable prices.  

I caught up with some of the videos that I enjoy watching.  'The Last Homely House' (featuring Kate Jackson from Northumberland) which is always a treat.  She made log cabin blocks using fabric scraps on adding machine paper tape.  I have never tried that but it would keep the scraps straight.  Sometimes when I sew scraps together, they have a tendency to careen off to one side or the other. 

The other video I watched was Treasures Books featuring Natasha.  It was a long video but I was so impressed that I want to make a 'Book of Scraps' journal.  It started out simply as a place to put those tiny little scraps that you wind up with when making journals but it turned out to be much more.

So, did you take a few minutes to read yesterday?  Remember, the October challenge is for you to take time for yourself..

Have a bright and cheery day...

Talk with you tomorrow...
