Found the yarn!

2 or 3 weeks ago when I was at Dollar Tree I saw a lady in an orange shirt with a scarf from this yarn.  I told her I liked the scarf and then I went on a search for the yarn.  It is in the Sundance collection.  They have one with the yellow in it also along with several other beautiful colors.  It came in the mail Friday and last night I did the scarf.  Made it 3 times before I got the length I wanted.  Normally I put 9 stitches on the crochet hook but with this one I only put 6 and it is the length I want.  I even brought the orange shirt before I found the yarn.

My pumpkin

At work we are having a pumpkin contest.  The other two people have done a GREAT job with Minnie Mouse and Bert/Ernie. 

Belated Birthday gift

 

My nephew was 7 on September 13th and for his sisters 7th b'day I did the tied fleece blankets in whatever they were interested in.  For Jackson I looked all over at stores and on line for these 2 fleeces.  I finally ended up buying 2 throws and then having to cut side binding off one and the end off the other and even them up and made it like that.  Money wise about the same as the girls but his is alittle smaller.  He will get it Monday I guess.

Laundry Redo

This is the flooring that I picked out.  Between this and a gray slate looking that the husband kinda liked but I got this.  We have to do the trim yet, and paint the trim around doors and that room will be redone.  One off the list and LOTS more on it. (that is a piece of paper on it I see)

Sunday afternoon

My son and husband decided to transplant the strawberries that we put out this past spring.  They had several runners already.  The walnuts are falling.  You would out there and just hear them fall once in awhile.

One of the fur babies

The outside cat has had 3 kittens all black/white.  The last couple of days my husband goes out and checks on them in the garage and this one is always out of the big box and in the little box that is out there.  I guess it wants its own space.  They are at the cute climbing out stage.  Thankfully I have a coworker who will take these 3.

Laundry Room

I am finally getting the laundry room repainted.  Will also get new flooring, a new soaking sink and redo the cabinet for it.  I still like the wall paper border so keeping it.  Hope the painting gets done today.  They put the primer in the paint and you would think 1 coat to go over white but wrong. The wash board is actually my grandmas that she used and on it is aprons for nails that were from the lumber yard my grandpa owned.  In the one picture you can see a white bench and my grandpa made that back in the 30's.
