time flies...

The kitchen has finally quieted down.

*sigh*

 The first cuts of the season were made.

Two wee trees headed south...

one with Hannah and one with Lindsey and her Scott.

I love to think of their apartments filled 

with the scent of balsams from our

bit of earth.

 See that trail headed over the brink?

The beginnings of a snow person rolled down that hill...

 This is the transition time from harvest bounty 

to the darkest days of December.

The paper white narcissus parade has begun!

Pots are nestled under the bed in the chilly room of requirement,

ready to be brought out, bit by bit, through the winter.

 This very special quilt came up from NYC for some careful mending.

 Stitched by many hands with love and intention, 

it was won in a raffle in 2012 and was in need of some TLC. 

Honored to have it under my needle, 

I repaired its seams, and its headed back home now, 

filled with even more love than when it arrived. 

Dearest readers, I hope you had a peace-filled 

Thanksgiving if you are here in the US. 

If you live elsewhere, know that this was an especially

introspective time of gratitude for many of us here,

still trying to get our feet back under ourselves.

I am grateful for your visits here at
sew and sow life.
