NOVEMBER--THE FOOD MONTH!!!!!

 

Turkey--Pumpkin pie, cranberry sauce, sweet potatoes, corn casseroles, stuffing, gravy--- so who is hungry????

Here is what I 'cooked' up this week--in the sewing/quilting department--

First these are the newest Christmas hearts--

And here is some 'more' Christmas Sunbonnet Sues-

got me some blue Sue's in this bunch!!!  Really like them--but very hard to find blue plaids!!!

And here is the latest stitch along--

From Melisa--again this year she is giving us a monthly snowman block to embroider-I did the one 2 years ago--but skipped last year--so am all ready to do this one--we are coloring them in a bit with crayon--and I plan to do the main parts in shades of blue--but will do the actual snowmen/women bodies in white with orang noses and black face accents--

Plan to finish this one,  while watching the last NASCAR race of the season--this afternoon--oh --dear--then, what I am going to watch--???????????

Someone let a 'frog' lose in my apartment last Sunday--

And can you believe this quilt top went from this--

to these--

yep it took Courage to take this one above, all apart--for the 3rd or 4th time with these blocks of trying to put them into a wall hanging in the last 10 years--once again--

but part of it was my fault--these blocks were different sizes--and when sewed together like above--the seams were very crooked and uneven--soooo--time to start over once again--

And now I have '12' blocks that 6" square all the same--I hand sewed each block to the square--with centering that block to the square--and then I have ruffled out the side seams on each square a bit--

NOW to decide if I want to do lattice around the blocks and what to do for the border????

And for knitting --I am working on a couple little preemie  size baby sweaters--

Not sure where the week went--kept busy--but it doesn't seem like I have much to show for it??

HAVE YOU STARTED PLANNING YOUR THANKSGIVING DINNER??????
