Stuffed and Quilting

 


I am stuffed! How about you?  Oh , but there are leftovers still to be eaten. Mmmm, I am thinking turkey sandwiches are in my future. 
We had a wonderful Thanksgiving gathering with 19 in attendance at Mom's . It would have only been better if the rest of the family could have been here. I think we will be eating leftovers for days which is  a good thing.  

Do you have a favorite holiday leftover? 


The Autumn Hutch has already been cleared off and the "bones" for the Christmas Hutch is "in the works". I am going with plaids. 

Arranging, plates, runners and lights  for Christmas decorating. 

And I finished my Country Christmas Doodles Set 6 . These will be on display here soon.


 I have shared 6 sets of these redwork embroideries over the years. If you are interested in checking out any of the others , I invite you to hop over to the older posts. 


Have you seen Diann's  Christmas hexies topper that she is working on  at Little Penguin Quilts blogspot? Cute as a button. ❤She is using some of the doodles to create a little quilt similar to her Fall table quilt  that she finished earlier this month which is also adorable  I might add. Thank you , Diann for using these little doodles. 🤗

On Wednesday, I laid out my Peppermint Pinwheels blocks to get an idea as to where I am at. 

I am aiming for 72 blocks. 

I need 22 more blocks so.....  back to cutting pretty red, pink and green strips. 

Strips are being cut for more blocks. 

Soon I will be piecing the pretty blocks into a quilt. 

These blocks measure 8 1/2" squared unfinished. 

That is what is going on in the holler today! 
I  hope your day is going well. 

As Always...


Happy  Stitching and Quilting,

 y'all
