Hello November!

 

Halloween was a bust. I just couldn't get into it this year. I did finish stitching the kitty part of the Button Eyed Cat project. He's a bit orthodontically challenged I'm afraid. That's what you get when you do half of the smile in 2019 and the other half in 2020. He's now getting packed away until 2021.

I also finished the Day of the Dead puzzle. It only had 300 pieces which is just about my speed right at the moment. I need to order more of those. 

Inktober's over and I'm kinda sad. This week I had to do DIG (a bulldozer), BUDDY (where I found out I can't draw dogs no matter how many tutorials I watched), SHOES (my Crocs collection of course), HIDE (from a photo of Danny running thru the Shining maze), MUSIC (Woodstock-what else? I'm a boomer), FLOAT (the Macy's turkey float), OMINOUS (the US Covid graph, gulp) and finally CRAWL (I just had a very unfortunate incident with a giant spider in the bathtub. Unfortunate for me not it. It's outside and just fine. It will take me a while to recover however).

Now the whole collection goes in the box with the other three year's worth. I'm never very impressed by the quality but I sure am by the quantity. It's quite a pile. 

I also need to thank Jeannie of Jeannie Gray Knits for sending these to me. It's a double pointed needle holder made from fabric that looks like a watercolor swatch. How darn cool is that? The band is a wrist ruler. You know that will come in handy. I never have one when I need one. Thanks Jeannie! That was most generous and very appreciated.
