Monday Musings 11/9/26

by | Nov 9, 2026 | 0 comments

Happy Monday morning everyone!! Welcome to Monday Musings. It’s been a nice week in the south! The leaves have mostly turned and are definitely turning loose now…partly due to the rain and winds we had. Last week lightening struck a tree less than a mile from us and that tree fell on a lady driving her daughter’s car. Thankfully she wasn’t badly injured, definitely jarred and a few scratches from glass. She was very fortunate. It could have been much worse. The tree basically exploded and there were limbs and bark everywhere. Our daughter was at the high school to pick up B and she actually saw the bolt from there. I’m thankful she had to go by to get B because she would have been right about there during the time it hit. What have you guys been up to this week? I’ll catch you up on the happenings in my studio and then please share what is going on in your world! Thanks for being here! Now, let’s move on to the good stuff!!

Here’s how my story ended for the week of 11/2/26- 11/8/26:

  • Download next set of instructions for Marigold Mystery. DONE!! I have it printed out and looked it over. I can’t wait to start putting those spools together!
  • Finish cutting out Highland Heifers blocks. DONE!! Here are the blocks I was able to get sewn this week. Click on the photo to see the entire picture. This is the first time I’ve sewn with flannel – it’s different!

  • Sew Day on Wednesday if weather permits. NOPE!! We were expecting rain and storms so I stayed home. Didn’t want to get Tula wet!
  • Whatever cranks my tractor! DONE!! Not a lot. I had a dental appointment Friday and it’s always good to catch up with my hygienist and her family happenings.

    Plans for the week of 11/9 – 11/15/26:

    • Continue work on Highland Heifers.
    • Hopefully cut out Marigold Mystery pieces for this month.
    • Sew Day on Tuesday this week. It’s also my 49th anniversary!
    • Whatever suits my fancy!!
