Colors of Fall & Sneak Peek #10
Aloha! It seems this past weekend was a bevy of activity in blogland. There were costumes to be made, snow storms to endure, and sales to peruse. Although my blog has been quiet these past few days, believe me I was right there with you finalizing costumes, taking shelter from the much needed rain, and adding to the stash! I thought I'd show you that even Maui takes part in adorning itself with fall color. You just have to know where to look!
And look we did! Several pumpkins came home with us from Kula Country Farms. They were instantly transformed into crude Jack-O-Lanterns, which hastily liquefied in the hot sun, looking even more ghoulish than the day they were carved the moment before collapsing into a pile of mush. Oh well...it was fun while they lasted.
Not one to cry over pumpkin mush, I've moved on...to my Next Project. Here is a sneak peek of some of the details so far. Stay tuned, I hope to have the final reveal in a couple of days.

OK, that's interesting. Such a different take on Hawaii, from the waterfalls, flowers and ocean views. Pumpkin farms-who wouldda' thought!
That is a pretty photo! I grew up in a beach town, and most people don't remember that real life (farms, hardware stores etc) go on behind the scenes.
I think I have guessed what pattern you are using!!
I bookmarked the baby hem technique as it isn't something I have done in the past (more - lots of careful ironing and then sewing). I don't have anything I am sewing that requires it now so I am saving it for later. The great thing about reading blogs is hopefully picking up a trick or two to make things easier - or prettier.
We had freezing nights here in Oregon around Halloween so pumpkins quickly turned to 'squash' quickly.
Great photos :-) we don't have orange pumpkins in New Zealand. Your sneak peak looks fab, love the fabric.
I love your pumpkin pictures! And I'm looking forward to getting a good look at your latest garment - it's looking lovely!
Ooooh, now I really want to see what you have made! It looks ver promising!
Lovely photos - and the cutest little hem!
Beautiful outfit and the skirt length looks great on you.
