it's christmas! er...halloween!

despite our snowy ground, 3-4", it is really only halloween here.  thanks to the ocean for the modulation in snowfall here, another good reason for coastal living.  last night i got the halloween witch bound...so cute don't you think?  i still have to quilt around a few of the letters and finish quilting around the shoes but it will definitely be put to use today.  then i can start binding the red/cream.  i put up the folding banquet table to tie the red/cream and pin on the binding, so i'm anxious to put it away as there is no room to keep it up for long, though it would be a tremendous help if i could.  **** got my flu shot  yesterday so i am just as happy to really relax today.  will have to get the paper at some point, though.  ***** next on the list is to get back to quilting the amish center diamond.  i should be able to get this done by the end of the year, lopping off another on my UFO list.  the autumn change flimsy should get done as well.  after that, want to get my carolina christmas flimsy done....that one will be tied as well, so many seams you know, so that will be a quick finish as well.  ***** going into my second year with no job.  it feels like living in the 'twilight zone' as only in maine have i been unemployed for such extended periods of time.  i can't say it enough.....i hate vacationland.

  1. I am be"witch"ed. She is so fun--and the spangles are perfect. Do kids still trick-or-treat where you live? In this little farm community you have to drive kids from house to house, so about 12 years ago they started a trunk-or-treat at the church and now no one goes to the houses.
    You have accomplished so much--is there anything left on your UFO list?
