I have been working on this project for a while. I call it a “fabric art” piece. I used it to practice my embroidery. And to prove to myself that I can sometimes make the things that I picture in my head.
I am pleased with how it turned out. I am going to hang it on the wall with pride.
I love the idea of this paper doll clothes garland. Really, anything paper doll related has a special place in my heart. These would be super cute at a little girl birthday party…someday.

Growing up, I never had pecan pie. When I moved down here, pecan pie was this big deal. I am still learning to fully appreciate the pie, but I can definitely get behind this cookie version. (recipe here)
We love the pumpkin garden outside of Whole Foods. So many different kinds of pumpkins to conquer. (Real pumpkin king here.)
What a very fancy acorn. (new in the Little Amaryllis shop)
I know I am a lucky girl to have such a sweet boy. He surprised me with beautiful amaryllis measuring cups. Because he loves me. : )
I have been waiting almost a whole year to use these cookie cutters. After seeing all their little faces, it was definitely worth the wait.
The early nightfall brings back so many memories. Raking leaves. Crisp football game nights. Warm home-ma-made dinners. How cold the inside of a pumpkin is when you are taking out its guts. The delicious smell of the halloween candy bucket, even when there is no candy inside it. My favorite Halloween show. Oh, fall. You are the best.
