Just felt like writing tonight. It is a cool October night. Bill and I just got home from watching my daughter Tonya and son-in-law Jack playing a game of co-ed softball. Adults are really hiliarious when they play and are having fun. By the way their team won.
Today I began making Halloween costumes for Will and Gianni. It has been forever since I have put on a collar on a shirt. It will be along time before I do it again!!! It took 4 times to get it right and figure out what the devil I was doing wrong. Will is going to be a pirate and the shirt has a collar - not a good collar, but it is on the right way.
Tomorrow I promised my brother Eddie that I would come help him do our yearly "pear preserve" making. That means I get to peel and cut pears up all day. Eddie is 74 and travels often because he is responsible for doing all the ABA conventions every year. That means he has to travel a lot to view convention sites. But it gives him lots of miles and reward points. He was able to go to Vancouver last week and had a wonderful time. He saw some beautiful sights and went to Victoria for the gardens. That was the highlight of his trip. I get to see the world through his eyes and his pictures.
What I really want to do is begin my October Bead Project, but it is going to be put on hold to finish my Halloween costumes. This month is so full of things I am scheduled to do it is scary. And best of all - this month I get to go to Houston to the International Quilt Festival.
Well thanks for listening. Have fun - remember it is never too late!!!

Have a wonderful time in Houston... and if the exhibit includes either of the Quilt Journal Projects, be sure to take time for them... They're awesome!

Hi Brenda...I'm finally getting out and catching up with other BJP members.
Your September page is just wonderful and I love the flag and the emptiness of the buildings! I don't think any September will ever go by that we all don't forget the sadness of 9/11!
Costumes and preserves...you have been busy! Have a great time at the Quilt Festival...sounds great. You will squeeze in your October page...don't worry. And, thank goodness there are no BJP police...I'd already be in jail!
I look forward to seeing your monthly pages!

Hope the pears turned out great and hope you had fun at the quilt festival.
