November!!!!

 I love November above all other months!!  The color..the light...cold nights and warm (ish ) days...The Holidays.......I just love it all....fire in the fireplace....homemade bread!!
 We are having a really late fall here.....usually most of the leaves are gone but this year they are just hanging on.....yea!!
 The Marsh turns a golden color and we can see so much more!  Hen Island in the distance on the Left.
 These are my favorite mums of all !  soft pink ...with a yellow center....they are so tall they flop over and then the yellow and orange leaves mix in.......so pretty....the mums we call Mummys mums..because they are so my mother....but I found out they are called Sheffield ...isn't that a wonderful name!
 My quince is putting out a few cold weather blooms.....
 Look at this color!!!!!!  I makes me happy......  = ^.. ^ =  
 Hen Island.....
 Quince and a few other surprises in the fall garden...


 Oh!!  and why did I not know how much fun wool felt is???????
 My little snow man.....I love him!
 This is the beginning of a little winter scene!!
One side of a mitten that will be an ornament..  I am in love with felt!!  Have any of you used the  bamboo felt??  I am thinking of trying it because it is washable...or so I am told...and I worry about moths with the wool.... I would love to know..  I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend!!

  1. This is so wierd, I was just listening to the wind outside thinking how much I love the season changes in the UK. I was thinking of a friend who lives in Spain who will no longer experience Autumn and Winter as we do. I could never leave the uk for a hot climate I love the changes. This is when I start to get excited about Xmas now it's getting colder and it's cosy in the home. Sheffield is the city my mum lived in before she married, we visited a lot until I was 10 to see family. It's not as pretty as your flower as its an industrial city xxx

  5. That is a very nice November garden, glorious colors.
    Not heard of Bamboo felt, I bet is is lovely to work with though.
    Am thinking of making a few embroidered Christmas cards this year, I better hurry up and get started.
