Nov. OMG Batik Progress

I had to take advantage of this sunny afternoon to snap a picture of my batik flimsy.
(As the morning found our neighborhood hidden in fog)
Fall is quickly coming to an end around here and if you look closely at our grass, you can see we aerated the yard today. (Okay hubby did while I sewed....but you get what I mean). But! This does mean I am done mowing for the year!!! I'm on my way to JoAnne's to purchase the minky backing I want to use to finish this flimsy.  I then plan to take advantage of this beautiful, sunny 58 degree afternoon and go for a long walk with good ol' Jackson. Then hope to get this one loaded on the long-arm. Hope your day is filled with a little window of sunshine and sewing as well.

Next week's T.A. theme is MUG RUGS!!

  1. Loved the photo. JoAnne's is a dream. I remember when I went to USA and wanted to buy the whole store.
    You're so lucky to have stores like that.
    Have a great weekend.

  3. What a perfect backdrop for your pretty flimsy and that Jackson making sure he's in the picture, ha HA! :)
    I saw your comment on my post...the guy coming into your school with a rifle ; OMG what a horrendous thing to happen and you see these things on the news and then suddenly it is in your own school. So frightening but I am glad it turned out alright there.
