The birthday sweater is done! It's so cheery! I believe I will think of it as a Michaelmas sweater, since it seems to match this image so well. I'm not sure if I've kept it a secret or not, but I feel Willow will be pleased. Her last ten days of eight. Sigh.
The younger two and I made some bath sachets using lavender, chamomile, calendula (what the deer didn't eat), and rose petals. I look forward to trying them out!
Roan's helmet is nearly done--what a quick project! This is for his half-birthday, since he gets left out of the two weeks of birthday celebrations.
And Laurel Mae got a new dress, part of her witch costume for Halloween, unless she decides to be a pumpkin or a cat. Hard to tell, you know. This fabric was pre-quilted, which was a little tricky, but it came out well. She lives in dresses, as all-terrain as she is.
And with that, I've got a little time to myself. Time to enjoy it!

The sweater looks great. Lovely colours! And what a good idea to make bath satchets in those little gauze bags. I will have a go too! We have lots of dried herbs :-) The dress is really pretty too - lovely work Brandy! Sweet of you to make your son something on his half birthday. I can imagine he could feel a bit left out on the present front with your girls having birthdays around the same time. But there is always Christmas :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you for all your kind words. :-) Yes, Christmas is heavily on my mind lately. Not long now!
