Some Christmas quilting done

 It's been a while again!   But I've been busy sewing Christmas items.  Even though I haven't been vending much this year, I decided to participate in a craft show over last weekend, however, when we went to set up our booth, we found out that it had been cancelled, so we went back home (to our advantage, it was only about 2 miles from our homes).  Since that was cancelled, we decided to join in on a Christmas Faire in Dayton, OR that we did last year.  It will take place the second weekend in November.

Here are a few of the items that I have made:

These deer are in front of the house next door to our house.



This poor deer was all alone (except for the neighborhood kitty on our neighbors car).  The deer didn't look very healthy and wasn't with a
 group of friends or family.  I felt sorry for him (or her?).

We have been having lovely weather here, cool at night and pleasant during the day.  The leaves are changing and it will probably start raining soon.  Hope you are enjoying your changing weather too.

  3. How frustrating that you were not notified that the show was canceled. Good you hadn't had to travel far for it.
    Hope your show next week goes well. You've made some lovely pieces.
    Is it a common occurrence to have deer in the yards in your neighborhood? We see more of them in the foothills neighborhoods here, and we are a few miles away from those. But every now and then some of them follow the rivers into the valley and we see them leaping the fences of the farms here in the low parts of the valley, or, sadly, getting hit by unsuspecting motorists rounding a bend on their way home.
    We woke up to snow this morning, and it stayed cold enough that it didn't all melt away with the sunshine. Hopefully we will see several more relatively nice days before Thanksgiving. We need to get our Christmas lights up. LOL
