the tide is going out, as it were
despite the fact that it's eighty-something degrees out, leaves like this are screaming out that the major natural wonder that IS the ever-evolving painting of autumn is on it's way.

personally, autumn is my favorite season. others write it off, or find it depressing, because they only see the herald of winter; IT'S SO MUCH MORE THAN THAT! it's photosynthesis in action! it's a great example of "the best things in life are free"! it's great sounds underneath your feet! it's the time that all that knitting comes into action!!!!
although, i must say i haven't really been knitting much. the only thing i've really been working on is this stuffed fox from a lucinda guy book. it's going to be one of kinnon's christmas presents. i'll put up some picts later, when i've blocked all the pieces. right now all it looks like is a big mangled pile of yarn.
i've been focusing my energy mostly on sewing and jewelry making. i haven't got the jewelry photographed yet, but i did take pictures of the t-shirts i've juzjed up. by-the-by; i got into the whole bias tape making thing, in conjunction with my desire to have some new girlie shirts, so all bias tape on all shirts was made by yours truly! it's quite labor-intensive, but you wind up with a lot of goods for the effort.
i did a green one, that for some reason i had to sew a bow onto...
then i did a navy one. i was pretty stoked to use some of the odd-ball buttons my aunt jane sent me.
the last one i've done so far (i have two more designated), is my scottie shirt. at first i was going to do a plaid scottie applique, but then i decided to go with the yo-yo/button combo
i don't know if you can see, but there's a little scottie button in the middle of that yo-yo combo
this gave me the idea to make up some of these
