Stitching Together Our Favorites: October Edition
October has been full of crunchy leaves, soup nights, early sunsets, and finally pulling the sweaters back out. Before we jump headfirst into the holidays, we are stitching together the little things that made this month cozier around here. These are our October favorites, the books, finds, and go-tos we kept reaching for all month long.

Grace’s Favorites: Martha Hall Kelly’s Lilac Girls Trilogy
Over the summer, a friend recommended Martha Hall Kelly’s books. I started my first one in mid-September and could not stop listening! I quickly made my way through all three and finished the final one just last week.
Most of you know how much I love historical fiction, and these were right up my alley! A little heads-up, though: because they are set during wartime, there are some intense and heartbreaking parts. But if you love historical fiction, I highly recommend them!
Emma’s Favorite: A Sunrise Alarm Clock
I have been wanting a sunrise alarm clock for the longest time, and when I saw the price of this one, I had to try it! It is so much more affordable than other options but still has tons of great features. It has been helping me get up earlier and enjoy a little quiet time to myself before the kids wake up.
Eliza’s Favorite: Fleece Lined Tights
Once October hits, I am not ready to give up my skirts and dresses, but I am also not about to freeze. These fleece lined tights are the answer. They look like regular sheer tights, but they are so warm and cozy underneath. They have been perfect for church and chilly evenings out.
I bought them last year and have already worn them more times than I can count!
Faith’s Favorite: EXIT: The Disappearance of Sherlock Holmes
Lucy and I just played this game and it was so much fun! It is an escape room where you have to solve riddles and clues to get to the end. What I love most about it is just how unique it is! You cannot use the same game more than once due to the nature of some of the clues and actions you must complete. It gives you the thrill of an escape room in the comfort of your own home.
Lucy’s Favorite: The Brick
My favorite this month is the Brick. It is a little magnet you tap your phone on, and it locks you out of whatever apps you choose until you tap it again.
If you have been wanting to spend less time on your phone but willpower alone is not cutting it, this is the nudge you need.
Hope’s Favorite: Chacos
My favorite thing this month (and for the past five years) has been my Chacos!! They are a little bit on the pricier side, but they are my go-to shoe and have lasted so many years. They are perfect for a rainy day, a hike, or an adventure. There are always a ton of sales on Amazon or at local stores. If you have been debating getting yourself a pair, I say go for it!
