Signs of Fall (Sutherlin, OR)

We extended our time in Sutherlin for one more month while Dan wraps up some doctor and dentist appointments.  We will be leaving in less than two weeks.  After we leave here, we will spend the next four weeks bouncing between the Oregon coast and Eugene for upgrades on the motorhome.
The weather has cooled off quite a bit and we are seeing more rain.  Nothing like going to sleep to the sound of rain on the roof, right?  Rain on the roof during the day tells me: 'more quilting time!'  😄

Below is a photo of Dusty watching a feathered visitor talking turkey to Dan.
The turkey spent a good 5 minutes chattering to Dan.  We both think someone has been feeding the turkeys and this one was begging for a handout.  Or maybe...this one knows we are vegetarians and was asking for sanctuary.  
If that's the case, I'm sure Dusty would have put all four paws down to this big guy moving in.  😼

Max sized him up and decided to stay on the far side of the car.

I tried all summer to restock my Etsy shop with no luck, but this is not a complaint.  No!  I stayed quite busy filling custom orders!  Just as I was finishing the binding on the ABC quilt, 
I received a request for two Owl mug rugs.  I mailed them last week, sooo
I was able to get back to sewing up some more Happy Campers.  I really thought the sales for Happy Campers would slow down by now, but people are looking for anything with campers on them.  Vacationing in your own RV has become one of the most popular family past-times.  The vintage camper craze is stronger than ever with renovations and camping.
And I digress.....back to my mug rugs.  They still need some buttons and stitching before they are ready to list in my shop so I should get back to my thread and needle!
Happy Quilting!

  1. Wow, what a life you lead! Campers are indeed in season, all the time it seems. We used to have a VW van and those are all around and people just love them!
