Since it's been hot the fall colours aren't really painting the world yet with vivid red, orange, and yellow, but soon I hope.
I happened upon the following lovely fall quote today.

We had a tornado warning about a week ago. I was oblivious to it. (I now have a weather alert app.)
Unfortunately, six tornadoes touched down in Ottawa/Gatineau region, causing a lot of damage and shock. Although Canada does get an occasional tornado it usually doesn't amount to much, so we are all reeling. Hopefully, people will be able to rebuild before winter sets in.

"Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all."

Cattails. A perennial favourite of mine.
A puff ball mushroom. Apparently you can eat it. At first, I thought it was an old soccer ball. Me being me I gave it a poke with a small reed. It felt like a mushroom but I couldn't believe my eyes. A friend of mine on instagram named it for me.
Seeds of Queen Anne's Lace.
A low pressure system coming in.
If you've been reading along, you may remember a similar painting. I finished this one recently.
On the needles. A cabled hat. Yarn from Brooklyn Tweed.

'Til next time, lovelies. Cultivate your dreams.
