The calender says September but the thermometer says July

...yesterday it reached 97 F/37 C, today it is already 91 F/33 C
by Friday it is suppose to be 64F/18 C.
I prefer the cooler days but I'm sure my tomatoes will love the heat wave...
the heat makes for sweeter tomatoes.
I hope we do not get the severe storms they are predicting this evening for SE Michigan .

Don't you just love sunflowers...I do.


On Saturday I went to the Plymouth Fall Festival with my friend Christa.
...we walked from her house...about a mile or so
...dodged the rain drops and took shelter under the trees.
There was lots of tempting foods and we visited the arts and craft booths.
I was disappointed...not many 'true' craft booths
...but there were 'home party'  booths, like ...Pampered Chef...
a spice party hostess trying to book a party...not sure the name of the company.
I must check the definition of the word 'craft'.
The best part of the day was spending time with a friend!!

On Sunday...DH and I went to Greenfield Village at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn MI.
It was the perfect weather...not as hot as it was last year.

DH was busy snapping pictures...here are a few









While sitting on the bench listening to the Village Strings Group I noticed one of the ladies...
the one in the long white skirt had a quilted hexie bag hanging from her 'Dulcimer'.
This quilted bag protected her 'hammers'.





I sat on the bench listening to the music for 15, 20 minutes while DH took pictures
and spoke to the husband of one of the musicians.  
It was a fun day.

DH's first video attempt with his phone.


I have been sewing, really I have, I will share with you soon.

till next time and 
happy stitching
