Halloween Fun

Tonight was the first Halloween Joe did not have to work since 2003 and we went to Leoncia's in Ft. Smith, AR. It's a New Orleans style restaurant which holds Celtic Night once a month and it happened to be tonight. We had a great time and went in costume -- I wore my Ren Faire market dress and Joe dressed as a cowboy......... Though considering we live in Oklahoma I wonder if anyone realized it was his costume :D LOL

The staff was all in costume too and we had a wonderful time. Also worked on a Molly there, got the back done and started one of the front pieces started.






Back home to relax with Bell, Book & Candle and some Vampire Red Wine... mmmmmm

Sunday before last...

... Even after going to Altus the day before, Joe and I headed to Sweet Bay Coffee House for an few hours of Celtic Music courtesy of Cold Water dog







The above is them playing The Butterfly. 

Some pics from the afternoon.

 

While the music ended about 4:30 - 5ish, we remained and kicked back till about 6:30 when we headed out to see Sweeney Todd which was awesome!

It's been awhile........

Since I last posted what I've been up to. That's because for the past couple of weeks things have been busy and active and hectic and along with trying to complete mollys for friends, I've also had to complete an afghan for a wedding present by this past Saturday. Joe had a wedding to officiate at our church and I made this for the couple.




As well as did their programs and a ceremony booklet for Joe to use during the service and then be a keepsake for them after.



Also, have been working on some mollys and mailed out three so far so Kadidid, Overcast and Lezlishae watch your mailboxes!!

Shae!



Kadi


Delana


Have assembled and am working on the trim for Flipendo's and have Hpmommy's waiting to be assembled and trimmed. The body for Hp5freak's is almost done and will be starting another batch of sleeves as I work on more bodies as well.

Taking a break -- well is it a break if you're working on Mollys as you listen? -- Joe and i went back to Sweet Bay Coffee House in Ft. Smith for the celtic music they have on the second Sunday of the month.  It had been a few months since we'd been there so it was a nice way to relax.





Now, back to work on Mollys!

By they way if you are keeping count, that's 9 mollys completed!

Productive Few Days

Got some thrift shopping done with some great finds. Jeans hubby needed, two nightgowns for NOLA in house unity colors no less!


and an interesting celtic looking wood plaque and a St Francis for my garden when I get one!



Friday I attempted to get my sewing machine fixed but was told the price would be way more than worth it. So guess I'll consider looking for another one instead. However I did manage to get some craft supplies I needed to finish projects and some yarn in a "lighter shade of pink than I used for Jenn's Molly" to make yet another Molly for quietish!



So will be starting on that in the upcoming weeks.

Spent the weekend crafting and as a result there is another version of "300" below!


In the meantime, started a shawl in fun yarn I found at Dollar Tree for the conference. and here's progress so far:


That's the first ball of yarn so far and the one to the side above is a full ball to give you some idea how far I seem to be getting out of one ball of it.

Love Token












gURL.comI took the "what's your love token?" quiz on gURL.com
Your love token is...
a spoon
But what's a spoon got to do with love? If you're a Welsh sailor, plenty. Young men would spend their time aboard ships carving these elaborate constructions from a single piece of wood.

What's your love token?
