My kids wanted to make something for my table at Studio Craft, so we created these little guys from wool roving and acorn tops today. Pretty cute.

Another squirrel. His
tail came out really pouffy! I'm a little nutty myself, still scrambling
to get things done. I'm about 30% there with the Halloween
costumes, pumpkins have been carved (and the seeds roasted),
gingerbread ghosts have been baked, iced and decorated, (some) projects
and swaps have finally been finished and mailed, and I've been sewing
and stuffing as fast as I can (which, admittedly, is not very fast as
I'm kind of slow and finicky) for Studio Craft. In fact, I've
run out of stuffing, so I'll be moving on to other things this week
(provided my Gocco supplies are delivered in time). I know that I'm not
going to be able to make as many things as I had planned (my sister
is arriving on Wednesday to further distract me), but I'll be happy to
just sit there with whatever I can manage to put together and enjoy the
truly fine company (and do some shopping of my own). Everything left
over will be added to my shop the following week. I'll let the mailing
list know ahead of time.
