Happy Thanksgiving and check out my Turkey!!!

I love Thanksgiving!

It's a great time to see family and eat Turkey, Stuffing, Mash Potatoes and a little Wine!  What is even better is when you are visiting someone else and you don't have to cook!!  This year we will be visiting Jim's brother John and he is a great cook!  Don't worry I get my chance to cook on Christmas Day, more Turkey, Stuffing, and Mash Potatoes.  Oh yes and more Wine!!

Since I love Turkey so much I decided I needed a Turkey Wallhanging to welcome friends and family.

Here is how he looked when I designed him in EQ7.

Here he is hanging on the front door.

I want to wish everyone a great Thanksgiving!!!

Fall Pumpkin wall hanging completed!!!

I designed this wall hanging using EQ7 and a Quiltmaker quilting stencil.  I hand embroidered the center and then added the Marti and Me Club Twinkling Stars to the borders.  It is 36" x 36" and just fits on the back of my front door!  It brightens up the hallway.  My next project is a smaller turkey wall hanging.

Happy Veteran's Day - Check out all the quilts and vote!!!

I have entered my Stars and Stripes Allover at the Quilting Gallery's remember Veteran's contest.  There are a number of beautiful quilts to view and vote for your favorite.
