I think the warmer part of fall has passed now. Cold and wet weather is the forecast for the next week or so. I don't mind the wet and I don't mind the cold but I do mind when they are together. As long as we get a bit of sunshine here and there it'll be fine. I need to get my walks in regardless of the weather so I'll be heading to the mall to walk if it gets too bad.
Since I have the big sewing machine out and ready to go I might try my hand at creating doll clothing for DD's American Girl doll. DD has some cute outfits that might translate well into doll clothes. I also might make some nightgowns for DD and her doll out of worn king-size flannel sheets. I might have enough time to start tackling it this weekend.
I unearthed my Painted Sunflower Frame this past weekend. I love the touches of metallic copper acrylic paint in the leaves in flower centers. This might work well on a "Welcome" plaque design I have in mind. Another thing I might tackle this weekend.

Inspiration kits have really been catching my eye and inspiration lately. I love seeing what can be put together, mixed and matched. Lots of little pieces, scraps of papers, tags, metal embellishments, doo-dads, and such. Since I have lots of that type of stuff on hand I decided to put together a few kits for myself. I usually create kits for projects or pages that I'm working on but not just for inspiration. It was fun and really interesting to gather things without a real purpose. I have no idea what to do with this kit yet but another one is already in the works.
