Firstly, my monthly stitch for Stitching Lotus's Smalls SAL: This month I stitched the turkey block on the lower right. The design is
Frolic in the Foliage by Blue Ribbon Designs. For November I'll stitch
the words and motifs along the bottom, and then the piece will be done!
I also finished stitching Halloween March Drum by Dames of the Needle. I purchased the kit with the fabric (30 count Guacamole by WDW) and thread (Gunmetal also by WDW), as well as some velvet for FFOing. Because of my peculiar stitching style, I ran out of thread with just a few more stitches to go. I really like the thread, so I ordered more; it will be a good variegated gray/black to have in my stash. This photo is before putting in those last few stitches (top border, left):
I'm currently working on "October" from the Snowflower Diaries freebie "Joyful World."
In non-stitchy news, I got a photo of my 5-animal zoo that I thought I'd share. My furnace had to be replaced, but in the couple of weeks before the scheduled replacement the temperatures turned Autumn-y and my drafty old house got a bit chilly. This was my couch one day last week, after I got up to get a cup of tea:
I'd been sitting beside the dark brown dog with the two cats half on my lap. The other cat is sitting on top of the couch because if he couldn't be on my lap then he didn't want any part of the cuddle session. 😊
