The dome of the Ohio Statehouse. It's more beautiful in person.
How many trees? They looked like more than four when I first saw them and then I realized I was seeing shadows too.
Cowboys! These scraps of fabric, cut at odd angles, were at the recycle center a few years ago. Whatever shall I do with them?!
Ice cream gets a halo when in a vintage bowl, with just the right light.
Recent autumn glory. We walk by these maple seeds every day and every day they change color a little more. They usually wing their way to earth in spring: it's unusual to see them now.
A few nuts and seed pods.... Too beautiful not to keep and enjoy, at least for a while.
I hope you have a great weekend.

I love your photo posts!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lizzy.
DeleteCowboy scraps would make wonderful centers for a Western themed crazy quilt--;))) thanks for the little tour in pictures hugs Julierose
ReplyDeleteThanks, Julie. Maybe those cowboys will become part of a crazy quilt! I've never made one, though....

DeleteBeautiful. The state house dome looks like it could be a quilt block (and I've always felt that ice cream should have a halo - now it does!).
ReplyDeleteThank you, Marie. I thought the same thing about the statehouse dome. I especially like the idea that all those narrow pieces wouldn't have to meet in the middle but would have a circle or two to cover their ends. I think I counted 48 "blades" in that circle. I suppose a quilt block would have to be very large or it would be all seams.
DeleteYes, ice cream should have a halo!
Lovely and thoughtful.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jennie!
DeleteI had some of that same cowboy fabric, used a few pieces and donated the rest to the quilting group. Fun novelty for boys quilts. I love the collection of nuts, some are hickory?
ReplyDeleteHow did you use the cowboy fabric, Pat? I looked at yardage and the boys don't seem to have much space around them.
DeleteYes, a few hickory nuts--delicious but very hard to crack. I think the energy to get them open would use up any calories from eating them. Haha. Aren't they beautiful?!
The things of autumn always inspire me. It's an unpredictable season and it seems to go by too fast. Nice pictures.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Robin. I think the colorful part of autumn goes too fast, and then, after the leaves are gone, it seems like winter already. At least around here.
DeleteSome intriguing photos, Nancy.
ReplyDeletePersonally, like Marie, I think ice cream deserves a halo. ;)
I will send you an email with an idea of something you could do with the cowboy pieces.
Thank you, Robin. I agree with both of you about ice cream needing a halo. But it usually doesn't last long enough around here to get a halo.
DeleteThanks for the idea for the cowboy pieces.
Really nice photos!! The nuts & seed pods are very interesting. I really like your cowboy fabric! Enjoy your day! 🌻🦋
ReplyDeleteThank you, Angie. When I come upon interesting seeds, seedpods, or nuts I'm like a kid and hold onto them. They fascinate me.
DeleteIf you cannot figure out what to do with the cowboys, I'll take then. Let me know
ReplyDeleteIf I decide to pass them on I'll let you know, QuiltGranma.
DeleteI see a cowboy crazy quilt!
