November

How did it get to be November already? First we were carving pumpkins with friends (I didn't get any pictures of mine before the frost got to it) then suddenly it's the 8th of November!

We're still trying to hold onto what's left of a beautiful fall, but the wind is doing it's part to steal every last leaf from the trees.


This was the view from E's Mother's back yard 6 days ago. I am completely in love with the colors. If only I had the skills to turn these shades into dyed roving. Speaking of which I didn't dye a single thing this summer. I'll have to remedy that next year.

My November challenge is to attempt to finish making the rest of our Christmas presents. It's quite the list actually.
