Halloween is approaching! The friend who organised the "We're all in this together" Facebook events in the two villages (that fueled the Gingers sensation) is now planning a Pumpkin Trail. It's obviously not safe for the kids to be accepting sweets from residents who may be inadvertently passing on the virus so we are at least hoping to give them all a number of displays to visit.
Of course this means Pumpkin and Halloween Gingers!!!
About the same time I was commissioned to make a Halloween quilt, so I might have made some more Gingers but as applique rather than hanging ones
What you cant see is that for the spider's eyes and around the letters in the name I have used glow in the dark thread!!! I couldn't do more as this was the last few foot of precious glow thread that I've had for ages, but it was such fun to use I've given in and bought other spool
The quilt is looking good, just need to finish the binding.
But it's not the only one! There are three waiting to be done!
Continuing the ginger theme . . . yesterday was my birthday - I got two hand drawn Ginger cards from little fans in the village, and 5 Ginger Birthday themed images and GIFs from friends on Facebook!!!
I've clearly got myself a reputation!!!
Other birthday pressies included a painting by numbers kit (and a promise of a painting session with the girls one afternoon as they have one each too), a note book with a hand made hexie themed cover from Plum, a rock with an ammonite fossil in it (found and gifted by paleontologist God Daughter) and a beautiful carved wooden candle stick from a 'pre-loved' furniture barn near Lisa's new house
And a gorgeous bunch of flowers from Jackie!
