Lupine & Laughter Mystery - Part Two!

It's Friday!!  It's Lupine Mystery, Part Two Day!

I hope you are ready to really dig in today.

I've spent some time writing some parts ahead with all that is going on with my family - and as this posts my life is full of travelers and airports and amazing destinations!

Of course, this also means I'm flying by the seat of my pants and hoping that there are no hiccups, no misdirected or broken links and that all is going along swimmingly until I once again can connect to hotel Wi-Fi from Bavaria. 

Remember - it's not a race, we are taking things as they come with this mystery season, and if all else fails I'll fix it when I get home. Is there some holiday baking that you can do in the meantime? I'm sure there is.

Thanksgiving 2025!

Good morning, friends!

The house is still quiet as I write this - though there is a load of laundry running so I can finish my packing for tomorrow's flights to New York in preparation of our Germany/Austria adventure ahead.

Baking will happen as soon as this posts.  I'm responsible for the creamed corn corn bread and Dave's gluten free pumpkin custard.

Dinner is at 3pm at Jeff's so we'll be there by 2pm. That gives me time to get this out to you!

Slow Stitching Update -

Sometimes more is more.  More is better.  More is needed.

And in the case of my EPP hexie border...because of where I'm going to trim it, I needed to add a 3rd row to the border length.

Once I laid it out against the mothership, it was just insignificant and would likely disappear with trimming and adding a binding of some sort.

And it's not like there are not more hexagon papers on hand - and an abundance of neutral fabrics to just keep sewing, so let's go!
