FROM TURKEY TO LIGHTS !!!!

 I do hope you have all filled up on turkey and stuffing and ham and mashed potatoes--cause you/we now need lots of energy for the next --like only 27 days--but whose counting--project--

Christmas and all the Joy that goes with it!!!



I did manage to go down to my storage unit here in the building and pull out all the things that were in front of the Christmas things and get them all out and back to the apartment and the other stuff back into the unit--

Now I just have to wait for the 'fairies' to come and figure out how to decorate this year---and she laughed and laughed!!!!

Here is what my bed looks like this morning--



All the quilts and wall hangings--way too many--I did sort though them before doing this post and have 4 that I will donate to the Human Society thrift shop--and a couple that will be gifts this year--if I can afford the shipping--and we are not going to 'spoil' this post talking about shipping costs this year!!!!

I got the other red stocking finished--


I am not sure if I will use the middle one or if I will put something else in that space--????? and now to prep the items that will go into each stocking????

And here is the green stockings that I was going to use--


These I will probably be a table runner or maybe mug rugs for gifts????  I will have to talk to the fairy when she shows up and see what she thinks!!!!!

And here is where the hexie wreaths are going--


the photo is way off on the colors for some reason--but there is more of these in the works so will try to have the next photo come out better next week--

And I found this in the Christmas stuff--


Now to decide how to finish this off--more than likely it will be a  pillow--this is rather large--sooo????  It will be another mystery I need to decide on----??????

And--forgive me--but I did finish last night the long Christmas panel I was hand quilting--complete with binding--but me forgot to take a photo--it really needs to be hung up before the photo--I am thinking the front door--but??????

Well I best get busy--this afternoon my project is working on the Christmas baking scene--I am close to finishing the embroidery on that one--but it might take another stitching session after today --time will tell--

Remember to 'pace' yourself--get rest and eat good healthy food so we can all enjoy a Christmas this year with family and friends--

Hugs, di

Hope those fairies figure out how to decorate. I have things out but other than the tree trimmed, nothing is finished. You have some great projects to work on. Enjoy.

with the help of the Faries, I'm sure you'll sort out your Christmas stuff.
I love the red middle stocking.

You've got such fun Christmas projects in the works. Happy stitching this month. Christmas will come much sooner than I'm ready for!
