TNT: Never a Dull Moment

 

The center section of Patchwork Automne is finished. I'm putting it away until January so I can get out my winter holiday projects. I'll tackle those boring borders in the new year. 




I'm working my way across the last of the stitching sections on Matter's House. Thank you for all your advice on what to do about the dots. I'll be taking everyone's advice. I'm leaving some out. Stranding some of them and doing those confetti stitches on the rest. I've got a plan but it will have to wait until after the holidays too. I'm really looking forward to getting out the Christmas Quaker. 




Dear Jane E5 is covered and I should be starting to stitch them together today.




My tiniest of needles are busy on the hexie runner and I've got the scars to prove it. I really want to get this over with.



As for never a dull moment, in the same weekend that we've had every search and rescue dive team in the state looking for a boater that went missing from here last Thursday, we had a big fire in the apartments behind the marina. I heard the sirens go off at about 6:30 am and they just kept on coming. I knew it was something big but I never thought it was this big. By the sound of it I knew someone was having the worst day of their life but I never imagined this. What a terrible way to start the week.

  1. It seems like it's time to get the winter/holiday projects out, especially if that's what you're looking forward to. Water and fire can both be very dangerous.

  2. That hexie runner is so colorful and pretty. And those poor people. What a mess. That's one thing about condo living that worries me. The firemen have been out twice since we have lived here for stovetop grease fires. Other people's ignorance/neglect could definitely impact our lives.
    Blessings and hugs,

  3. Love the patchwork but I'm ready to be done with autumn colors for a bit.
