Interesting fabric.<br />We had a low key Thanksgiving and that was okay with us. Ate out. I might not mind cooking a turkey dinner if I had those turkey plates to eat it on.<br />I am battling sinus drainage and laryngitis. Lots of nose blowing. I will probably end up with a full blown head cold before long.

It does seem to complicate the assembly.<br />Sounds like a low-key Thanksgiving with helpful men was just what you needed. (Have to ask--do you have two dining rooms? Looking at your table setting and seeing another table and chairs through the door in the background.) Hope you are much improved now!<br />That is a gorgeous paisley bordering the snowballs!<br />The puzzle does look challenging. We keep a puzzle up at Mom's all the time, and sometimes the family finishes it before she gets a single piece in it. <br />Score on the deer! Such beauty at a discounted price--you won!! :)<br />Janet O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05083607398709252597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6259558187936840360.post-64101383602203325412017-12-02T09:44:24.770-05:002017-12-02T09:44:24.770-05:00The basket project looks wonderful - the fabrics a...The basket project looks wonderful - the fabrics are beautiful!

I was inspired after seeing another blogger's baskets inspired by your "sew with us" Not sure any sewing with them will happen but it is fun to play!<br />My husband always puts on a big light display for the holidays. I don't think he wants to include deer. We have too many of the real thing!<br />Hope you are feeling better!

I always get confused with on-point/sashed blocks and their setting triangles, especially when it comes to the middle row (sashing on all four sides) -- and then when I add cornerstones, sheesh! But back to the holiday: what fun to have turkey-themed dishes (though I'm partial to the Fiesta plate for the dog's share). When Thanksgiving is early (this year there's an entire week of November afterward) it's a challenge to know when to get out the Christmas decor. (Though we could be like retailers and start before Halloween. )Nannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09239289676429380866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6259558187936840360.post-14970394141255414312017-11-30T09:58:53.399-05:002017-11-30T09:58:53.399-05:00Hope you are feeling better today; these colds are...Hope you are feeling better today; these colds are hard to shake (ask me how I know ugh!!).

I shy away from sashing on point blocks - too much work (and notes!) for me. They are stunning though so I guess it is worth it. Love your deer find! I would love to illuminate the real ones that I see almost every morning and night on my commute to and from work. The island is overrun and I am so afraid I will hit one. Not sure they would stand for me trimming them with Christmas lights though - wink!
