Skinnies Contest

Hey there to all and happy Friday! I need your help. I'm working on getting another year of Seasonal Skinnies patterns to be released in May 2013.  What images would you like to see done? I do one Skinnie for each month. Some of them are harder then others to come up with an idea
 and image that would work well.
Here's the challenge. I want ideas for the months of
August
September
November
The image must be related to that month or something that would work. I have some ideas, but I want to know what you would want in a Skinnie. Check out my existing Skinnies
patterns to see what's already there. The ideas can be one long skinnis image or
have 3-5 images per Skinnie, OK?
Rules of the challenge
1. leave one comment with all your ideas.
2. be creative and fun
3. check back on Friday Oct 12 to see if you have won the prize
The prize for the winner is one  set of my Seasonal Skinnies patterns.
There are two choices
 
Year 2
Year 3
Put on your quilting caps and think up some great ideas!! 
Thanks for your help and have a fabulous weekend!

  1. For August, a beach theme -- sailboats, lighthouses, flamingoes, and such.
    For September, back to school -- pencils, books, schoolhouses, etc.
    For November (and this one's a stretch) -- elections. Yeah, I don't like it either.

  8. After talking with you today I thought of a witch for October and then see that you don't need October. How about a chalkboard for September with an apple. How about a moose or an apple pie for fall. There is always a surf board for summer, candy apples for fall. There, now you have 8 comments. Karlene

    September: A school bus with fall leaves
    November: A turkey or a bear in pilgram clothing
