A great Day!

Okay, so it started out with a sad event.
Please note the shoes, socks, and long pants!  Aack!  summer really is over.
I waw this really fun tutorial for fabric pinecones   this morning.  I was planning to run some errands, so I decided to stop for some styrofoam balls.  Ideally, I thought having a couple of different sizes would be a great idea.  But then I found this bag of mixed-size egg shapes!  Even better than round pinecones.

Then on to the hunt for Nutter Butter minis.  SCORE!!!!
Be watching this space for acorn cookies soon.

I also made a trip to my LQS because today is Club day, when I can get a nice discount.  I found some nice green plaid fabric in the sale section, which I plan to use to make a couple of "Stockings for Kids".  Please click on the link and help if you can! 

I guess I better go get busy!  I have acorns and pinecones and stockings to make!  I'll be back later with the SAHR assignment.  Is anyone still playing along?

Counting my blessings....Sunny

    The pinecones are cute; and at first, I thought the mini nutter butters were to eat while sewing. LOL Can't wait to see your acorn cookies!

    Oh so you are going to make those acorn cookies. I think I should make some too. I have two special events I'm going to. The people there deserve a super nice treat. Oh and today was the first day I wore pants too - and closed shoes instead of sandals.

    As for the SAHR, I'm so discouraged I'm ready to fold it up and make it a UFO for a couple years. That will teach that fabric a lesson for not cooperating! LOL!!

    Sounds like your day turned out great, Sunny, even in long pants and socks/shoes. I saw those acorn cookies on Pinterest the other day, too. That looks like a fun yummy project. And now I'm dying to see your pinecones. :o)

    nice pinecones...are they similar to the christmas ball ornaments made with the folded points?

    Well, maybe you are not liking the long pants, socks, and shoes...but, I really like your shoes! Those are my favorite kind to wear...even better with cozy knitted socks!
