I still need to add the Jack O'Lantern face, but that won't take long. I don't know if you can see it or not, but the outer border is candy corn! I think I have something in my stash that I can use for the backing, but I don't think it will be ready for hanging in time for Halloween.
A couple of other small projects are almost finished, so I'll show them later in the week. Assuming I have power later in the week. Prayers going out to all who are in the path of Sandy. Even as far as we are from the coast, we're expecting several inches of rain, and Tropical Storm force winds. Major power outages are expected, and I'm hoping we won't be affected. If so, I'll be pulling out the crocheting to while away my time.
The last of the flowers on my deck |
These leaves will all be gone by this time tomorrow night. |
Keep on stitching..... Sunny
I'm pleased you warned us to sit down!! Well done - that is a great pattern. We've been hearing about 'Sandy' on the radio over here - I wondered who of my friends would be affected - I'll be thinking of you all.
ReplyDeleteGood Job! That Jack-o-lantern is really going to be cute. Love the candy corn border too. I bet you're glad to get a UFO done too. I have so many I can't count them and of course they are stored right now so it will be a while before I can get to them so my answer to the problem is to start new UFO's. I'm a bad girl. Be safe, stay dry and warm.
ReplyDeleteI love it! That will be such a nice Halloween decor addition.
ReplyDeleteStay safe with the storm.
Love your pumpkin just as it is!
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm twice impressed now!! Your quilt looks great. Even if it is not finished you could throw it over a table for Halloween.
ReplyDeleteGood luck in the storm. I remember all the damage from one a couple of years back.
wow Sunny what a great job you have done,love it,love all your pics,beautiful shots,and stay safe.xx
ReplyDeleteSad to see the leaves go.. :( Hope you are not affected by the storm too much. And a flimsy two weeks in a row.. you're on FIRE, Sunny! :) I love this one, too! Can't wait to see it done. Love the log cabin pumpkin.
ReplyDeleteThat is a sweet jack-o-lantern-to-be! What a fun project.
ReplyDeleteGreat pumpkin; good match to your header:-) All the best through the heavy storm on its way.!
ReplyDeleteYou are a marvel Sunny, go you!! Great stitching, and after all that time of the kit sitting, waiting for you!
ReplyDeleteWell Done!
How cute , I love your jack -o-lantern and Stay safe from Sandy , we should be seeing and feeling some affects by tomorrow or Wed. hugs Sheila
ReplyDeleteHaha! Sunny, you are such an instigator...but I'm way ahead of you. I've hunkered down for the week up here in Central NY with lots of quilting and other projects to catch up on. Sandy will pretty much run out of steam by the time it gets to our neighborhood but we're taking no chances and are ready for bear! Prayers going up for those in it's path.

ReplyDeleteLOL Pleased I am sitting down...
ReplyDeleteLove the pumpkin as is too..
Oh your Autumn colours are always so beautiful...
Love the pumpkin! Log cabin quilt projects are a lot of fun. Good job.
ReplyDeleteLove log cabin block and love pumpkins so I really love this little quilt. Good luck with the wind and rain. We only had a taste of it while we were in New Bern at a show but still came away soaking wet! Signed up for THREE shows in your area for next year. Hope to see you again!
ReplyDeleteThe little quilt is lovely.. and Oh I do hope you do not get hammered by the storm.
ReplyDeleteYOU DID IT! And it wonderful! I love the log cabin blocks and candy corn is one of my favorites. Good job Sunny.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pumpkin! I will be keeping my fingers crossed for you and hope that you do not lose power. Such a scary storm!
ReplyDeleteGlad I was sitting down, Sunny! That's the most clever pumpkin I've seen in a long time! Well done! I hope this finds you safe and warm and with power!
ReplyDeleteCheers!
Your little flimsy is adorable! I look forward to seeing the face you put on the pumpkin. Beautiful photos of the flowers that are still hanging on. Hopefully you have not been hit too hard by the remnants of Sandy.
ReplyDeleteso nice! I thought that looked like candy corn! I am horrible... I love fall fabrics...but never make the time to make something with the fabric I buy. {mostly fat quarters}... I just need to start.
ReplyDeleteHope you're safe after Sandy. <3 your close-up leaf photo! Being in Florida, I sure miss seeing those leaves!
