It’s just a little early, but we took pictures of the girlie today in her costume and orange and black. I pulled out one of my quilts and used my neighbor’s pumpkins to get some shots. So this is pure eye candy and indulgence on my part!
For my regular readers, you have obviously seen this quilt before, but for all the visitors, welcome! I hope you enjoy the story and the quilt and the journey to create both. I made this quilt for the doll quilt swap on flickr and I was so happy to have the creative freedom from my

Well thanks to my fabulously talented genius husband, my sewing machine was up and running by the next day! I had cleaned and cleaned and cleaned, but I married the right man, because he can clean even better than I can. First he found another piece to take off the machine to allow more access
