SEEING COLORS

I added the last row to the mosaic of hexagons;  it is 48" x 60".  The yarn is from ancient skeins of  Homespun yarns 
by LionBrand.  
I had a different kind of project yesterday;  
I added two lamps over my bed. 
 I have been struggling for proper lighting
 for the hours I spend here knitting, crocheting or painting 
and I am hoping this will do the job.
Of course, there were no studs where I needed them to be 
so I had the ordeal of using mollies
 but eventually it all came together, the mess was cleaned up
 and all of the tools put away.
And might I say, it is wonderful to be able to knit with light shining where I need it and not next to me just making shadows!  The bed table lamps are in another room and I can work with darker colored yarns and actually SEE what I am doing!!!
(I want a three-way bulb to use in the lights so I am on the hunt to find a pair! If only I could buy some incandescent ones!)

A' WELCOME' CHANGE

I finally spent some time reacquainting myself with the Cricut machine on this previously purchased shaped signage I bought at Hobby Lobby.  The sunflower is actually a large 'sticker' I printed and then enhanced with colored pencils.  The letters are vinyl;  to protect the project, I sprayed it with clear lacquer.  The fun thing is--I will make another design for September on the other side!
Next, I found the right wall hanging and flowers to match--

to make a warm welcome with the new entrance decor!

The Thanksgiving wall hanging is off the frame and on the wall! It is a nice new look at the front door!   I am working on new words for the...
