SUNDAY- September 25, 2011<\/b>
\nThis morning after a damp week, the day began foggy. I assumed it was going to be cold out. SURPRISE! Hot and humid… a last reminder of summer!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

WEEKLY FABRIC SPECIAL<\/b>
\nThis week the fabric special is the
\nChicken toile fabric, in brown.
\nThis has small roosters and hens on a stippled plum brown background,
\nwhich makes for a change from the normal yellow, red, or blue rooster toile fabrics!
\nThis is a good scale and weight for napkins, and would not show the dirt!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

BROWN CHICKEN TOILE FABRIC<\/b><\/p>\n

This can be seen in the
\nChicken and Duck Fabric Category.<\/a><\/p>\n

ON THE AGENDA THIS WEEK:<\/b>
\nOur favorite fabric rep is coming tomorrow… so we can catch up on fabric news!<\/p>\n

A new bolt of the red deer toile should be in on Wednesday, for all that want that.<\/p>\n

I hope to finish the Down East Trip, Lubec….<\/p>\n

Will be adding more destash pieces, as we get ready for new fabric coming in. For the ones added Friday see last weeks blog.<\/p>\n

And hopefully can add a lot of nice pictures of September in Maine to the Maine Musings…<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A Small piece of Schumacher Leopard Fabric.

Schumacher Silk Stripe Fabric<\/p>\n

Two pieces of a fabric marketed by Schumacher Fabrics have been listed. One is a destash piece due to a fold impression, even though the fabric has never been folded.<\/p>\n

This is a sumptuous silk satin, suitable for upholstery work. Platinum gold stripes alternate with different colored stripes that are slightly wider. The colors are rich tones of brick, brown, copper, greyed taupe, and deep gold. Because of the satin weave the color tones will change, depending on how the light hits the fabric.<\/p>\n

\nA Schumacher Grammercy magnolia fabric. This is a sheeting weight fabric that arrived flat folded, so marked destash. This has large magnolias done in shades of salmon and orange. It is perfect for curtains, or napkins!<\/p>\n

THURSDAY- September 29, 2011<\/b><\/p>\n

Today we discontinued the Discontinued Fabrics section of the blog. We get so little (none) notice that a fabric has been out of print that it became pointless. From now on as soon as we learn that something is out of print we will add it to the item specifics that are below the listings.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Well, Pumpkin Fest is about a week away. For those who don’t know what that is, it is a pumpkin festival held in Damariscotta, Maine. This is not your ordinary pumpkin festival. This is all about the giant Atlantic pumpkins! There are weigh offs, a pumpkin toss, a pumpkin regatta (yes, people are out there in pumpkins that have been turned into boats), and this year a new pumpkin derby!<\/p>\n

Come up to Damariscotta, eat some pie, and see the giant pumpkins lining Maine street.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow is the beginning of the weigh off… And on Sunday someone will be awarded $10,000 for the prize for having grown the largest pumpkin. I went down to Pinkham’s Plantation today, to see what was going on, and pumpkins are already showing up to be weighed… there was one that weight 910.5 lbs! Now that is a pumpkin!<\/p>\n

SATURDAY- October 1, 2011<\/b><\/p>\n

Unreal- the first of October, where does the time go? We were awakened this morning to a huge, long clap of thunder! and then there was lightening and then a LOT of rain. Today is the Pumpkin Fest weigh off for the volunteer growers’ pumpkins. We hope to get some pictures after the rain lets up!.<\/p>\n

This week the most sold color was pink!
