Fall is definitely here

Well, here I am all wrapped up in a warm sweater and really hoping I can get by a little longer without turning the heat on! It was a chilly day in northeast Wisconsin. I put the littlest one to bed in her blanket sleeper and I have the down comforter back on my own bed. I'm thinking dinner tomorrow night will be a homemade chicken potpie. Doesn't that sound lovely and fall-ish? I just love this season.

Etsy is bursting with fabulous fall creations. Here are a few of my favorites:
Adorable crocheted owl by scraptrapped
Tiny forest by QuietudeQuilts


Halloween Hand Painted Birdhouse by PaintBrushedBoutique


I've been crocheting all sorts of Halloween items myself and I was so thrilled to find some wonderful patterns on Etsy by bearsy43. I just finished making some potholders from her patterns and I really love them. Here are two that I have up on Etsy right now: 


Black Kitty


Jack O'Lantern




These were so much fun to make! Working with two colors of yarn at once was a new challenge for me and now it's all I want to do!
