Well...the kick off of another busy holiday season is here. Tom or Tilly turkey is only 2 days away. I'm getting off a bit easy as we will be home alone this year.....a casualty of moving so far from family. But.....really, any day is a holiday when we do all gather.
Even though we will still be making the full traditional Thanksgiving meal.....I hope to have time over the next few days to begin a new project. Digging deep into my stash, I've pulled stacks of commercial cottons for a patchwork lap quilt. It was fun revisiting these favorite designs....I'm still a sucker for fabrics that provide a vintage (late 1800's) look to a quilt.
Looking at these piles....I see I really should be adding some bubble gum pink, puke green, and faded blue to achieve that look.....maybe....but I have another idea..... Stay tuned....

We had an early Turkey dinner w/kids since they are both on vacation (Mexico and Aruba - must be nice!) and Bob and I will be eating leftovers from that dinner while watching the Lions..perhaps, we'll wait and watch Lions before we eat!! Hope Packs have better luck!!
I am making turkey dinner on Sat. for my 'step' family. Anxious to see them!!! Always a fun day...enjoy your day as well!
