Dog and Butterfly



Easy peasie puddin' pie.



Simplicity 7876 Wrap-Skirt

It took less than an hour to make.
And it matches the flutterby pockets on my old sweater.
At first I thought I'd accidentally cut the fabric out upside down....and I was very sad.....because all the butterflies were flying down toward the ground.
BUT
it is basically a circle skirt....
so in the front,
they are flying
UP!
Which means I cut it out correctly afterall.
Whew.



More photos of my special boy!!
We just got back from a walkabout in the rose-colored-low-angle-sunlit evening.
I love the northwest!!
Everything is so green and mossy.
I love summer, but fall is bestest.
The previous owners of our house converted the woodburning fireplace to gas, and we are in the process of converting it BACK.

I look forward to the ritual lighting of a warm fire in the chilly autumn mornings.

Good things happen at the hearth.
