Friday Finish

 TGIF Friends.

WOOHOO I have a finish.

If you remember I decided to change 

up the colors on this piece.

I went with the called for orange, 

a yellow and brown.

When I kept looking at the pattern,

I saw the two pumpkins and a sunflower,

plus the leaves at the center bottom.

I also changed the date from 2023

when the pattern came out to this year.

Completed this into a pillow

and rag stuffed like I do most of my pillows.

Doesn't it look sweet in this basket on top

of some flax fiber.

For those not familiar with flax,

this is what linen is made from.

The fibers I have here is the raw form which

 would be spun on a flax winder box...

somewhat similar to the spinning of wool.

This is one of my most prized possessions.

This is a flax winder.

I keep this in the guest room and it never gets moved.

Am too afraid the wood needle at the end will

break off, so it stays put.

The needle spins the flax.

In other news,

Bob has a birthday on Sunday.

He will be a young 61.

Happy Birthday Hon!

We received bad news about his sister.

She was in the hospital last week because

of her heart.

Looks like she had another heart attack.

Now her heart is at 20%.

They sent her home with a heart vest

and she is suppose to calm down and quit

being so stressed out...not likely she will do that.

She is the baby of his family and is only 58.

My granddaughter Mikayla got her first car

last night.

We are going out to dinner with her,

her brother and my daughter tonight so  

I will hear more about it then. 

She will be a senior this year and also has a job,

which I know she has been saving up for a car.

She also has a GPA of 3.9% so we are

very proud of her.

Well have to get ready for work.

Hope everyone enjoys their weekend.

Any plans on what you will be doing?

It's Friday Blessings To All!
