Chair Pad Preview

I did a little sewing yesterday, but only after I took a walk in the woods (one last look at the leaves before the rain and wind knock them all down today) with Sophia and my husband, Mark. 

Here's a little sneak peak of the chair pad I've been working on for our Eddie Bauer High Chair. Yesterday I started on the binding, I'm hoping to finish it today.

More to come when it is done!

And here's a look at our walk in the woods:

Putting it Off 'till Tomorrow

So...I haven't made too much progress on any of the things I listed in Monday's post. The past three days have been simply G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S! Really. Beautiful New England fall days, where the sun is warm and the breeze is crisp and the sky is so blue that it makes the leaves on the trees look like fire. 

Instead of sewing Sophia and I went hiking. It was a good choice. Considering we're expecting a Nor' Easter up in these parts: which means 4 solid days of rain and wind. And by the time the storm passes through all the leaves will be knocked out of the trees, the color will be gone and it will be barren and gray and November.

I decided the sewing can wait 'till the rain starts, then I'll have all my bright fabrics to cheer me up.
