SEPTEMBER FABRIC JOURNAL PROMPTS

 
Prompts for September:
"Christmas Snowman"
"Winter Woods"

Above is the first prompt
my Christmas 
Snow "Lady" base.
;)))))

I want to add a funky 
flower rosette to
her chapeaux
and some little charms....

I had fun putting this
one together this morning
and 
I sat here to baste it all down
this afternoon:

On our front patio 
beneath our Pagoda umbrella.

This is the first day that it has been
cool enough
 
(and I was able) 
to
sit here in
my favorite little
reading, sewing or just
sipping "after lunch tea"

Our 57th Wedding Anniversary
will be this coming this Sunday.

I got a surprise "early" gift from 
my darling Tom

Isn't it pretty??
I just 
L O V E it!!
💋💖
It has a nice size dial for these
aging eyes....and is 
encased in rose gold..
my favorite of the precious 
metals...

***********************
I had mentioned before that my poor
fledgling magnolia tree had lost
just about all its leaves
and didn't look too happy..
I wondered if it would even 
survive this drought! 
BUT
All it took was one inch of 
good steady, soft rain two
days ago and look what it
is doing....
👏👏👏
Putting on a little show of blossoms again for us...
A M A Z I N G!!
[You can see how our lawn has turned so 
brittle and dry--it crackles when you
walk on it,,,, ugh]

**************************
Dinner this evening will be:
Meatloat, mashed potatoes,
applesauce and zucchini squash.
