How I spent my Thanksgiving weekend...


I made this patriotic top using scraps I won from Alycia of Quilts of Valor and a donated panel from a friend.

Thanksgiving Fun!

Since I was too lazy to take pics today, I've borrowed this pic from Amy's blog. Papa and the boys had fun in the leaves while the rest of us pursued other activities - naps and Black Friday ad shopping. Amy is organized and ready to hit the stores tomorrow. Think I'll stay home and sew. Hope all my friends and family in blogland had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

These selvages are mostly dots so I could use some of the wordy selvages for a border. Guess I'll ponder this for a while.....
