So many stitches, so little time!

 Well, it didn't take long to complete Santa #12!  I can't believe I have finished the stitching part of my 12 Santa journey!  I have to say I have truly enjoyed stitching everyone of these and I have my eye on a few more that I would like to add to the collection in the future.  I hope to start finishing them, once I complete the October Chart for the Linen and Threads SAL.

I have already started stitching but still have a ways to go!

I also finished my autumn stitchery!  I got busy and mounted it on foam core and it now up so that it can be enjoyed.  I know I will be too busy to get anymore of the seasons stitched this year.  But I have ordered the two I didn't have so they will be there when I am ready.  We are getting some flooring replaced in our front room and living room and going out of town mid November  so that may put a kabosh on my stitching for a while.  So if I can get my Santas finished and keep up with my SAL I will be happy. 

 Then once the floors are done I can think about pulling out the king size quilt top and getting it basted.   I have no idea yet how I will quilt it???????  What do you think????????  Nothing fancy for sure maybe it's a great candidate for some Baptist Fans, time will tell. So looks like there is plenty of slow stitches of one kind of another to keep me busy well into spring!

Progress

 It's been busy here! We had a new fence put in on the east side of our yard so we spent Tuesday spraying it and the west side so now they are all coherent and ready for the weather.   I have spent a little more time outdoors getting my  daily 10,000 steps.  You have have to take advantage of the gorgeous fall weather here in Texas. Fall is a bit like spring in some places after being cooped up in the AC it is so nice to be able to do things outside again.  Stitching is coming along on the final Santa!  He's all about birds!  I really need to mount my fall stitchery before the season ends, so that will be a priority this week. October seems to be moving along too quickly.  But there's plenty of time to stitch so hopefully I will get my October SAL charts stitched before the month ends.

Yesterday, we needed a change of pace, so we drove up to Turner Falls in Oklahoma.  It's really a beautiful area especially now that the temps are enjoyable.  

We don't get the gorgeous fall colors here like the northern states but the area was gorgeous and the weather was perfect!
