Apple Cake Donuts
Other than pumpkin, it is apples that have the taste of autumn. So, here are apple donuts on a pumpkin plate. These apple cake donuts are lightly spiced with cinnamon, and have a fresh apple flavor in a really moist donut, perfect for a weekend treat. I have been trying to get this recipe right …
Fall Veranda
Autumn is my favorite time of year, with the temperature getting cooler, all the color in the trees, and pumpkins. There is just something about a pumpkin that makes me smile. I'd love to cover our porch with chrysanthemums, but that might get a little pricy with the size of our porch. So, I gathered …
Sewing Chatelaine
This chatelaine is so easy to make with grosgrain ribbon, a couple of rings, a bit of stitch witchery and an afternoon of fun sewing. I took a little longer with mine because I like to embellish things. I actually made this a long time ago, but now I have a blog to share it. …
Autumn Mason Jar Project
Aren't Mason jars the neatest things? I don't know why I am so drawn to them, maybe because they remind me of a simpler time. My grandmother made the best jams, and always used those jars. I found these lovelies in a thrift store, and had to get them. They say Golden Harvest on the …

Block of the Month September 2014
This month the LQS picked Wild Waves from Quilter's Cache. This is a pretty simple block as all of the parts can be chain-stitched each step of the way. The colors chosen by the quilt shop are a really pretty blue/green variable, a darker blue watermark, and the standard grey that has been the background …
Changeable Mason Jar Candles
Purely by accident one day while shopping at a big box crafting store, I found that the little flared votive candle holders will fit the top of a medium size mason jar. The votives were just around the corner from the jars, and on an impulse I decided to see if one would fit. You …
A Trip to the Vineyard
Last weekend we took a little jaunt to one of our state's premier wineries and vineyards. Shelton Vineyards is in Dobson, NC, just a couple of hours northeast of here. It has 406 acres of grapes, making it the largest family owned vineyard in NC. Shelton Vineyards was host to a national Triumph event, and …
