What's "New"...

... really nothing is new, but let's just say what I'm working on has been rediscovered! I got the binding on the "Pumpkins Squared" table topper and basted down, it's awaiting the handwork now. This one was purchased as a kit by Riley Blake from my LQS several years ago. Everything was included in the kit, including the binding. I bought the October, November and December offerings; they were marketed as twelve different seasonal toppers. Stay tuned for the other two that I have, I won't even begin to suggest when that might happen but I'm on a roll. Hopefully they will make appearances in a timely fashion. 

Continuing with the pumpkin theme, a bit of nightly in-front-of-TV cross stitch taking shape. This is another of the monthly minis from "Prairie Year" by Prairie Schooler. I love them all. 

I posted a while ago about brewing cacao instead of coffee. It's been a fairly recent morning ritual. Janet O, the Rogue Quilter, commented that she and her family loved the flavored varieties. Remembering that, I decided to try the Pumpkin Spice variety when it was introduced; 'tis the season and all that. 

It surely didn't disappoint! I guess there is something "new" here after all.

Cheers!

Life is Good!
