It is quite different from anything I've done before but I'm beginning to really like it. I'm not sure what type of hand quilting I will do yet; I figure that it will be on my design wall until after Christmas. I still have another quilt to bind before I start quilting this.
Are you going to be cooking all week? We will be cooking a turkey and yams as well as some small side dishes. As excited as I am about Thanksgiving, I'm itching to begin decorating!
I hope you have a perfect day, followed by a perfect week.
Hugs, Noreen

Noreen, thanks so much for your sweet comment. I do love to paint winter scenes. Maybe it's because I see so much of it!
ReplyDeleteI found a quilt company in a magazine that caters to Southwestern designs and they are gorgeous. It's in Albuquerque: Kokopelli Quilting Co., www.swdecoratives.com
Maybe you can find some fabrics you like there.......Denise
