Today I am making cornbread dressing and thankful I am able to.... and would like to wish all my friends online a happy day tomorrow.

I thought you might like to see this beautiful Christmas tree.  It is as big as my house so it isn't mine.  My friend Marie was at the lighting of it at the Henry Ford Museum.  Looks like she did some shopping there as well. 

My cornbread dressing recipe is on  my blog, November 2010 in case you would like to make it sometime.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

So Sweet

So many of us have been watching Linda's family as they have enlarged.  It seems like yesterday, the quads came along! Now they are having art lessons and sharing with us.  Thank you Linda.  Visit them often to watch them grow at Linda's Life Journal.  And may this week bless us all.

Lindberg School Craft Show

The funny little angels are going to Dearborn.  It will be nice to see everyone and take some pictures.
PJ, the flower maker, is my helper this year.  Wish my blogger friends could be there!

November turkeys

I just sent a Facebook post to Stacey Mead, the designer of the pattern I use to make these turkeys, to thank her.  I made four this year from her Raven's Haven pattern "Jake" the turkey (2007).

Jake is really easy to make, he has rebar wire legs. He also doesn't have to worry about ending up on a platter.

 Mr. Quilt Coat Santa is now in the building at Town Peddler Craft and Antique Mall.

Also some new hats, hand crochet by Neen, my friend, who makes these for their family diabetes project, to remember her grandson Scott.

I Added some of PJ's pins to some of them.  They are really nice, the crochet and pins were my idea and that was the extent of my input.  I can't make the pins and I sure can't crochet. 

Craft Show Time

These are two things I had left over from last year.  The right home just didn't come along for them last year.
Both of these are designs by Olde Country Cupboard, lordy, how we miss her and her beautiful work.

I'm looking forward to the weekend, Divine Child craft show (as a buyer and supporter for Barbara and hopefully Carol, Rosalee and Denise will be there) and Little Shop of Horrors (with SIL Jeff) at Out of the Box theater in Wyandotte.

We had rain, lightening, thunder this morning but many of my flowers are holding on. Me, as well.
Hope you all find a good craft show too.

October 2014

 The Pilgrims 2014, pattern by Sweet Meadows Farm,

 A really, really good book if you love books, reading and people who love books.  I want to read her other stories now.

Our October man, it has really been a little chilly for this sort of thing, we had a frost and now the leaves are beginning to fall.   I am sewing, making salsa and grape jelly and reading.  Hope you all are wonderful and busy too.
