This past weekend was gorgeous here in the south. It was so nice outside I wanted really badly to garden or even just roll around in the grass to prove I was enjoying the outdoors. LOL. I didn't do that, but the family did make efforts to play outside and BBQ a few times. We even visted the Stars Mill Park so Jesse could practice with a new photography image. Your supposed to take a still photo of the same thing over a few times in different exposures. Then you can combine them into one photo later during editing and it's supposed to create a very realistic pic. He tried this with the mill, but hasn't finished editing it yet. I have posted a few of our photos though below from the day!
While out we stopped by our favorite weekend spot- Barnes and Nobles, and I picked up a how-to book about sewing. I thought a easy read book with lots of photos would be helpful once I start to sew. This book by Alison Smith looked like just the thing with all sorts of explanations on tools, techniques, and supplies!
I also started a new embroidery project. I'm excited about it because it's a gift for someone who is expecting. I don't want to give away the whole gift idea, but I have a little sneak peek below!

My 1st Stitched Gift!
Below is a photo of the 1st thing I ever stitched as a gift. I did this kitchen towel for a bridal shower gift. I chose the design because she loves stars and it looked simple enough to do. I hope to post more photos soon of all the other things I have now been making for Christmas gifts. They have been keeping me busy all fall!
