Placemats

I was beginning to wonder if I would get these done before Halloween.  I finished them Friday and they are now in use.  2 of them as curtains and the other 2 for placemats.  I used fall fabric for the backing so I can turn them over on Nov 1st and use till I decorate for Christmas.  They aren't the greatest but the husband likes them!  The pattern for the placemats came from Eleanor Burns and I will be making the wallhanging for next year.

I've been working on halloween placemats and am to the point of adding the faces and then finishing.  However I will be making 2 placemats and the other 2 will be curtain for in the kitchen window.  The pattern is from Eleanor Burns and is quick and easy! 



Next up will be to make the turkey from Eleanor Burns for Thanksgiving.

A little this and a little that

Goodness I didn't think I was MIA for that long! I have been working on my socks from class, but had a mistake and tried to fix it and well that didn't go well, so I ended up ripping the whole thing out and am now starting over from the beginning...

So in the meantime I have been working on some pumpkin placemats and I got the bug to move things around in the sewing room and here are some pictures of what I have done, the one picture I still need to de-clutter the furniture and then should be basically done with the sewing area.





The other night we had a very pretty sunset and the one picture is of the moon and clouds.
