FallAppleDreamDay





We had such a beautiful weekend... we all went for a road trip out to a friend's apple orchard on a bluff overlooking Lake Pepin. It was beyond dreamy. A long car ride with beautiful views of hills, changing leaves, and the mighty Mississip, a sleeping baby in the back seat, and a trunk full of Apples. I can't think of anything better. Can't wait to make apple sauce, baby food for Claude, and the Onion Apple Casserole in the Joy of Cooking ... any other suggestions?

cutting out a few new bears!

I'm starting to work on a few bears for the Silver Bella Event I'll be teaching at in November. I love to have all my pieces cut out and sewn up far before I need them... it makes things go really quick when I'm in the last mad dash before an event or update. Happily all my pieces are sewn and on their way to getting ready for me to begin "finishing" for the Halloween update next month. I'm excited to start working on all the fun stuff but I'm waiting for a day when I'm feeling Bright and Well Rested before I dive in.

New Wedding Cake Topper... Seriously!





I recently sent this cake topper off to a couple who are getting married very soon. She asked me to make her a puppy and bunny cake topper- to honor their pet names for one and other.
(how sweet!?)
