A Little More Border

 Gentle Friends, almost there, here's a snaparoo of the border...

... I was really happy, nay, surprised when everything banged up and matched.  For some reason, I had a feeling that it wouldn't match up, now there's only to finish up the fill NPI963 on top and NPI962 on the bottom of the diamonds.

Now, I'm looking at stitching ahead since it's "September Start" and I've seen so many lovely starts online that I may just start something else...even though I am very much a monogamous stitcher, I might just have to get something else going...I got a few new things in the mail and a sampler might just be calling my name...(clapping hands and digging in the stash heap!!)

Since it's Fall, my favorite time of the year, I decided to decorate a bit and I hauled out my glass pumpkins and made up the "Patch" once again this year by the front door... here's a snaperoo...

.. they are from different glass artists with most coming from the furnace of Jack Pine.

Border Stitchin', Visiting NIAH, Eatin' Burgers and Brunch!

 Gentle Friends, I've been stitching away on the border, and here's a snap...

... just fill it in at the moment so it's not too exciting...
________________
Friday saw me finally making it across the Bay to Alameda and a visit to Needle in a Haystack...here are some snaps...
... a lovely wall of silks......



...after getting my silk and quite a bit of linen we stopped off at In-N-Out Burger...it was a perfect trip!!

After Mass Yesterday we headed over to the Presidio for lunch with friends...  

...we all got the same thing...
"Marin Farm Scrambled Eggs" 

When it landed on the table I thought they had brought me a salad, but under the microgreens were some delicious eggs, and the cheddar biscuits were delicious!!  That little cup of gravy is to pour over the biscuits, interesting, but a bit messy.

Since we were so very close, just a couple of blocks away, we walked down to the last remnant of the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exhibition...

The Palace of Fine Arts

We walked around in the sunshine with lots of brides, and Quinceanera celebrants getting their pictures taken... also tons of tourists and just locals walking their dogs.  It's a lovely park and worth a visit.  It is actually the first time in all the years living here that I've actually been down here to just walk around.
