changes in the air ..........

          I just love the changing of the seasons... 
                                 there is such a stir in the air!

Mornings are mistier, days are shorter, stars are brighter.

Time to make soup and bake bread . . . . 

breathe it in ............ {sigh}

there is something incredibly nostalgic 

and significant about the annual cascade 

of autumn leaves

a wise old owl sat on an oak

the more he saw the less he spoke

the less he spoke the more he heard

why aren't we like that wise old bird?

The leaves fall

 the wind blows

and the farm country slowly changes 

from the summer cottons into its winter woods

Ok .. Ok .. we won't discuss the "w" word

as it is much much too soon.....

Scatter Creek Hobo Bag

I choose to listen to the river for a while
thinking river thoughts
before joining the night and the stars.

While at Nisqually we noticed a few promising signs 

that spring is not too far away...

little leaf bud .. and it is trying to get out

I hope it doesn't freeze....

Canyon Rose Hobo Bag

Inspired by a vintage strip of needle point found at a thrift shop in Anchorage, Alaska. I've been holding on to it for quite awhile .. 

not know quite what to do with it. 

It came wrapped neatly in a bag with a few more odds and ends 

obviously from the same person. Included was a receipt for the burgundy wool yarn dated 1956 .. well AK wasn't even a state until 1959! Pretty cool, eh?

Groove on the Move Messenger Bag

The moment I saw this fabulous piece of art I knew I needed to preserve all the wonderful work that went into it ... as it was sitting on the shelf at the Senior Center Thrift Shop in Wenatchee Washington framed in a seriously too yellow frame. 

I bought this lovely, took it home, dismantlement it and carefully cleaned this glorious piece of nostalgic needlework.

What came out... 

a messenger bag that will be sure to delight!
