fall-ness

Hi guys. I'm back again. I've been working away in my studio, getting past my creative hurdles, and every day I think-- I need to post those how-tos! And ahem, haven't got there... but I will one of these first days.

Never made it to the SLC farmer's market this summer either with the upended summer that it was. I realized there were only a couple of more weekends left to hit the market. So Mike, Sophey, and I headed out for a day in Salt Lake.

The dogs are one of my favorite things about the farmer's market.

We went to the new Whole Foods store and did some shopping after the market.

And then we went to a favorite little consignment shop, Emiliejayne's.

But I dawdled behind and took house porch photos,

because I like to take house porch photos in the fall.

(Don't ask me why).

Emiliejayne's is loaded to the top with stuff, but it's all organized by colors.

And somehow, that just seems to keep it from feeling claustrophobic.

And it appeals to the organized part of me (which is usually a small part, but hey...)

Why didn't I buy that lamp or those glasses? They are awesome.

Cute idea for a wreath. I think an embroidery hoop would work for it.

Had to show you the crazy blue lady!

My husband is a trooper... When he posted on Facebook what he was doing for the day, Ainsley said he had lost his "man-card".

He just laughed.

But he did get to pick dinner at a local microbrewery. So he had his fun too.

We all had fun.

It's good to go and explore the city sometimes; it gets the ideas rolling again.

In other news around here... I've been sewing. A butterfly skirt/costume for Sophey.

TIP:

If you are going as a butterfly for Halloween, please make sure your wings can shake it, baby.

It's working... oh ya.

And I'm working...

 

I've got a studio full of projects in the works for sale soon--

cute things for kids and their mammas...

tea towels (that's a sneak peak above), totes, aprons, toys, pincushions, pillows, hair doodads,

AND... a zoo ful of half-naked sock monkeys who may begin rioting if they are not properly dressed soon.

That would be bad.

Gotta go work ;) 

Hope you are enjoying the day, and thanks so much for stopping by.

So very pretty! All the pictures and particularly Sophy of course. :) That dog is awesome. Fall has a special feel to it, but I must say we don't get much of that season here in FL. Halloweeners are out tonight with the spooks... (evil grin.)
