We have loads of squirrels around our house. These are gray but we also have black ones. These 2 were laying on top of our electric meter and the wood that connects it to the pole. They were chattering away at something on the ground.
Back to a more relaxed position. What ever it was must have gone away.

This and That
This is a pin cushion I made today. I forgot what they called it. I have never made one before but it was not too hard. I used a Yo-Yo and button on the top and bottom.
This is a crocheted scarf and hat. I usually knit them but thought I would try it for a change.
A low haze laid in the fields across the street from our house this morning. More like a Fall morning.
A different butterfly from what I have seen. I think it is a Monarch. It was on the Butterfly Bush.

Sewing Box and Scarf
This is a sewing box I found at a yard sale on Sat. I know it is not old but I got it for $2.00 and it has that much stuff in it. It also has the original list of what it contained. I love the look of it.
This is how it looks with all the compartments open. Lots of little spaces to hide things too. The bottom drawer has 2 layers of threads.
This is my latest scarf finish. I love the bright colors in it. I knitted this one in all knit stitches to make it softer.

View out my window
This is a Hummingbird Moth on my Butterfly Bush. He is to the right of the bloom. Click on the picture to get a better view of any of my pictures.
This is a Black-Capped Chickadee in my birdbath. I see them once in awhile.
Large black Butterfly on the bloom. It has visited a few times too.
This Hummingbird was visiting the Butterfly Bush too. I got several good shots of him eating.
Hope you enjoyed my critters today.

Last PIF Received
This is my last PIF that was mailed. I have now completed my PIF's for this time. I really enjoyed making things for the 3 that signed up with me. This bag had batting in it which made it a lot firmer. It was not quilted but just sewn in the seams and at the top. I added a few other goodies in the bag too. She really liked it. Now back to Craft show creating.

More Again
More clips. This is the end of making hair clips for awhile. I have 34 pair finished.
This is my angel ornament. I love the way she came out but I dislike doing the
hair.
Here are the 3 types of ornaments I did today. I did 3 angels but only one snowman head and one cone. I will make more of these before the craft show.

More of the Same Stuff
New batch of ornaments. These are felt with a little padding in the center. I added the buttons and then the stitching of Lazy Daisy's between each button. I then blanket stitched them together and made a loop for hanging.
Here is the whole group together.

Craft Show Items and Butterfly
These are German Floded Stars ornaments. The dark spots on them is glitter. I brushed them with glitter glue rather than dipping them in wax and sprinkleing them with glitter. I like the way they look.
This is a closer look at how they are made. I have made them for a long time and can do them without hardly thinking about it. They are made from long strips of paper.

More Craft Show Stuff
These are the bell Christmas ornaments I crocheted. There are 12 of them. The show is not until Oct. 23 but that date will come fast.
Here are the latest hair clips I made. Sorry the picture is a little fuzzy. I did brighter colors for the little kids. I am starting another group today. I hope they sell well for me.
