I have three cute finishes to share with you today. These are the BOM that I have been doing through Shabby Fabrics. These are called Bertie's Year by Bonnie Sullivan. I got way behind and I am determined to get them all done this year..
Aren't they sweet? You know how I love birds so I had to join in.

What a Hoot! BOMS Away!
I thought I would share my fall garden too. I actually took these pictures last week. We have had lots of rain since the weekend so these plants have really grown.
I have my plants which all started from seeds in different beds. I hope by doing that I will get some of the veggies and the voles won't get so much this fall.
This summer I tried growing pumpkins up on a trellis. I got two that survived the bugs grown this way. I don't know where I saw this idea but you take some kind of fabric, I used one of my husbands old knee socks, to make a hammock to rest the pumpkin in. That way it can grow and not break off from the vine. Pretty neat idea and it worked.
Last but not least a photo of my sweet grandson. He is a big boy now sitting in his new highchair I bought this weekend for him. He is enjoying eating baby food now.
With Passion,
Carrie P.

Such a cute wee fellow, I can imagine the pleasure he brings! Your seasonal finishes are lovely. They are all very striking. Hope your garden continues to grow and you can keep the pests away. Great idea with the hanger for the pumpkin!
I found all the Bertie patterns on sale a couple days ago and have ordered them. I plan on making individual quilts like yours. I enjoyed seeing yours.
Wow!! He's grown so much! You are so fortunate to see him daily. Your finishes are wonderful. I am so envious!

Your grandson sure is cute, what a sweet smile.

You've been busy! Your garden looks great. I've never seen pumpkins grown that way, but if it works . . . Your grandie is adorable.
Is the bird in the second picture a curved billed thrasher?
Those Bertie quilts are gorgeous! Jealous of your garden, and wow, what a pumpkin! Such a blessing to have that little man in your life, Carrie. x

Those are such charming little projects. Clever idea about the pumpkins wearing knee socks. :o) Damien is getting to be a big boy in a high chair. I know he brings lots of joy and happiness. Such a sweet face.
Love your little Birdie's Year blocks! Very cute Grandbaby too! He's growing up a bit huh!
I love your Bertie's Year blocks! You are inspiring me to start my Bertie's Winter BoM mini. I love that cute little bird!
I see you have binding on each block. Are you keeping your blocks as mini's?

Love the Bertie finishes!!! I have only finished the January one all the rest are still in the mailers:(---well February is half done. Grandson is adorable.
The grandson is so cute. Love your Berties they are coming along nicely. Somehow I beat the Voles they have moved on the better gardens I guess so I have actually been using my carrots!
