The kids and I went on a walk today...
...I took lots of photos...
(the skies are brilliant blue here, too, Susan.)
...I love everything about fall....
...we enjoyed the beautiful weather...
...and collected a stroller basket full of leaves and pine cones.
Now, I need to figure out how to knit (in the round) and felt a bowl to hold the pine cones. I'm wondering what to do with all my pressed leaves. (this is the second batch)
The kids and I also got to have lunch with my husband.
I got some sewing time in.
I played with the kids.
It's been a good day.
Glad you had a good day, though I have to say that the rainy days end up with things for me to laugh at. It was a beautiful day here...so we had a fire drill and then I helped with AWANA trash pick up.
ReplyDeleteHow could you have a bad day with a sky that blue? Our leaves aren't quite falling yet, but I am looking forward to collecting some soon!
ReplyDeleteAutumn days with clear blue skies are the best! Unfortunately they are most of the times grey and cloudy.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great day! Felted bowls are fun. It's a great idea to make one for your new collection.
ReplyDeleteWow, you guys have lost a leaves already. We are still in the thick of summer here.
ReplyDeleteSince you are a quilter, you could make a patchwork bowl. I made a fabric bowl in the spring, I am pretty sure I just googled fabric bowl and found easy directions. (Although you might be able to work it out on your own without the pattern, I don't remember it being crazy hard.)
What beautiful pictures. We are just now starting to get a hint of color in our leaves and are just seeing the first ones fall. I love this time of year!
ReplyDeletegreat photos of a great day:)
ReplyDeleteHappy you are able to enjoy the fall days with the kids AND get some sewing in.
Lunch with dad is always good :)
what an amazing day!! and i think i just need to learn how to knit period!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great day. We have been collecting conkers by the bucketload and threading them onto strings. Love this time of year!
ReplyDeleteI could probably help you if you'd be willing to crochet in the round. That works for felting too.
ReplyDeleteWow - such gorgeous photos. Looks like you had the perfect fall day. It also looks like you took our blue skies - it's been gray and rainy here for days now. Enjoy them!
ReplyDeleteAnd about knitting in the round? I love it - you're gonna fly on round needles, I just know it.
Sounds perfect! We need to savor these kinds of days more, don't we. Thanks for the reminder!!
ReplyDeleteI love nice, brisk autumn days. The sky is beautiful. I think we are expecting 90+ degree weather tomorrow. I want cool.
ReplyDeletesounds like a perfect day. i love those clear and bright autumn skies. with your parcel tray full of leaves, you (or the kids) could make a collage or mobile, maybe?
ReplyDeleteOh it sounds & looks like such a lovely fall day!
