I have gathered up my supplies to start my Halloween inventory. Have brand new bottles of yummy Orange, Purple, Bright Greens,Black, Yellows just to name a few, Have drawn a couple new patterns too:)


Bought beautiful Christmas fabric to make some beautiful Christmas Aprons.
Why am I so excited you ask? Creating in Fall colors thinking of Fall, Coolness, colors, Halloween, Thanksgiving, All is my favorite time of the year, Living in Florida , I am sorry to say Summer is my least favorite time of year, So starting to create Halloween in June makes itseem to be cooler:)
