What happened to summer?

Well I am happy to report that we survived the summer of 2017, and baby sitting our adorable grandson's was never a dull moment.  We had loads of fun, a tooth fell out and the tooth fairy found it under the pillow.  We had our family vacation, and the whole family was able to make it down to the shore with us.  An 8 year old boy cousin came to join in on the fun last week for 3 nights, and four days, and the finally to summer was Grandson #3 came into our lives!  He is perfect in every way, and in between summer fun I was able to finish some of the to do list.

Covered the Glider
The glider footstool was pretty easy.  The chair on the other hand?  I really wanted it to have a skirt just like the footstool, but neither had pattern pieces, and the directions had you make your own out of muslin, and the super procrastinator in me was coming down to the wire so this is what I did.  DD#2 is happy with what her mama did, and that makes me happy.

Cozy Canopy

This cozy canopy cover fits over the carrier/car seat.  I finished this weeks ago, and it's been sitting down in the dungeon for weeks just waiting for the handles to be sewn on.  It fits...(happy dance!)

So I know what happened to summer, I'm just never ready for it to come to an end.  But now on to Autumn sewing!  

Until next time.
Happy piecing, happy sewing,

Sheila
