Autumn has finally arrived!

The maple tree outside our window has finally begun to turn a bit orange at its tips and there are a few golden yellow leaves beginning to fall to the ground beneath it.  I have been waiting so patiently to begin autumn stories until the world outside reflected the picture I would be creating inside.  Finally!  After a quick trip to the farmer's market this morning to get (and eat all of) the last of the season's ground cherries, I made a little crop of needle felted pumpkins and and a family of hedgehogs.  I don't usually make things with eyes on them so it is fun having these little fellows peering up at me while I work.
