Owlet Cap....

 

I spent the afternoon with a girlfriend of mine as we worked
on our crochet projects while we chit chatted.Freckles really wanted an owl cap for
Christmas which I planned to do,but ran out of time and steam ...so, it finally got finished got finished!
Freckles is so happy with it!
Isn't she cute!!!!??

She is so BIG on owls right now!!!
A few posts back I shared a link to see the Barn Owl Live Web Cams. They are all sitting on eggs and will be hatching owlets all this month, so be sure to visit...The first baby owlet was hatched today by sweet Willow.

Don't forget to visit this one too!

 

If you don't crochet, you can find these on Etsy...

Or heck, I am more than happy to make an order for you!!!

Now, she wants a Bear Cap!!!!!!

Happy weekending to you!!!

Time Spent....

The past several days Freckles has been ill with the flu.

After My son gave it me, 

I gave it to Mr. Darling who in return gave it to Freckles. 

It's a vicious circle.

For some reason it just seems harder on the little ones.

This flu had struck us with mega head aches, neck aches,

fever, pain throughout body, sore throats and coughing..... Nasty stuff.

Poor Freckles has been running a fever today. 

It makes me sad to see her so sick.

  Her Time was spent on her bed reading a bit.

I captured these photos of her on her pretty bed, 

sitting on an older Ganny my Grandmother made when I was younger.

It is perfect in Freckles room. The roses so sweet!

My dear Freckles loves her bed room and bed which

is adorned with some vintage fabrics...

An old quilt that is quite tattered hangs on her wall... 

while vintage sheets make up her bed.

Perfectly cozy for her when shes under the weather.

I went to check on her a while later and the poor dear fell asleep.

Get well my sweet girl!!!

Autumn Evenings

If you have noticed through this season,
I have been taking pictures of this tree
and the changes it is going through.
The leaves are almost all off....
a sure sign of Winter ahead.
The day's have been warm yet,
as I have mentioned in past posts. Yet,
there is a friendly little chill in the evenings.
Enough to light the fireplace.

These are the kind of evenings perfect for quiet embroidery.
I am slowly making progress with this crewel
project I started earlier this Fall from
this post.(click)

Of course I have my little Mini Me right along side me doing a project.
Freckles just learned how to use a Knifty Knitter
and is in the progress of making an Autumn Cap.

I also finished a puzzle that my son & I started.
It feels so good to actually complete a project!

This scene is one of the sweetest reminders of Autumn.
It tickles me to the bone.

We are now preparing for our
Thanksgiving dinner for next week.
It has surely come too soon.
I am grateful to be able to spend the day with my little family.
I sure hope ya'll are having wonderful Autumn evenings
along with making your Thanksgiving plans.
Many blessings from my home to yours!
