Can you believe that it is almost the end of the year? October is the time to start thinking about how you can make a plan to finish some things up before the end of the year. You can add more dark blocks to your collection if you weren't able to use up a good number last month. This was my choice as I focused on black last month and brown this month. If you are not feeling quite so happy about walking on the dark side, then this is a chance to delve into the low volume and light basket. If none of those options appeal to you, then you can look back at your block collections and figure out what you need to use up or add to your stacks to lead to a finished quilt in the next couple of months.
My sewing time will be scarce this month. I have three graduate classes and one of them seems like a lot. There is also the career exploration fair coming up on November 1 which is a big thing that I need to put together. It is also the most busy time of year for college applications, which has me sitting down with so many seniors every day and really feeling like I am helping them get all the parts past the finish line. And breath!
I did get my new chair delivered yesterday. Look how comfy it is going to be. I can't wait to settle in and sew some hexies this afternoon. Just one more paper to write first for my research class. This one looks pretty straight forward compared to the monstrosity that was my curriculum paper. It is done now and I am moving on. Did I mention that the thing in the gulf just turned into a real storm? I hope it doesn't take us out of school on Wednesday, that is our PSAT which is a big deal for my students. We were pretty lucky on this coast last time, but Tampa is not going to be in good shape if the forecasts turn out to be accurate.

Busy days for you! Hope you get a chance to sit in that beautiful chair and relax with some hexies this weekend. Keeping you in my good thoughts for the next storm, too!
Stay safe! Love your new chair!
Angela, that chair does look comfy. Perfect for curling up in to read or stitch.
My kids each took the PSAT this week - Juniors were Wed and Sophomores were Thursday. Tampa does not need water or winds. It is a crazy hurricane season. Good luck with the reports and planning the expo.
Yes, that chair does look comfy. Hope you get the chance to "break it in" today. ;^)
Enjoy your new chair. Though it sounds like you are way to busy to sit much with all you have going on. Fingers crossed the storm doesn't get too big.
I am keeping you in my prayers with Hurrican Milton. I have friends in North Ft. Myers and they are also in my prayers. That chair sure does look comfy!
