A CGQC November finish.



I have to agree with Joan, Where did November go?  At least I can say that I've finished 1 of my projects for November.  I'm just so excited with how it turned out.  Thanks to Kelly, I have this wonderful wall hanging for many Christmases to come!  I hope to finish the mini me sometime this week.

Well, I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Check list

I don't know how many of you will be doing the Black Friday event but I thought I'd just do a quick reminder/suggestion list:
  1. Take your ads/print outs
  2. charge your cell phone
  3. contact wearer's - take your eye drops
  4. a couple of asprin/advil
If anyone has something to offer please leave me a comment.  I will be checking this post around 8pm (CST) tonight.  I plan to be in bed around that time because 3am will be here in no time.  Monroe, LA is about 2 hours away and the FUN (LOL!) starts around 4-5am, depending on the store.  The funny thing is, I'm pretty much finished all of my Christmas shopping.  I'm just going for the fun, food & girl time!  Hope everyone has a good day tomorrow! : )

I can't stand it!

Ok, I got these a couple of weeks ago...




Nice, huh?  They weren't in the budget but ya know - it's Christmas time.  Anyhoo, I got them from the Fat Quarter Shop when they first came out.  See, I was thinking one for me, one for you (?) and the other would make a few nice little 'happy' bundle gifts.  My 100th post is coming up & so is Christmas.  With all the festivities starting, I didn't want to forget & I want to make sure the winner gets it by Christmas.  So, I figure I would do my 100th post giveaway after Thanksgiving...even though I've only posted 88 (?) times, at the rate I'm flapping my gums #100 should be here in no time!  Hope everyone is having a great week!

Ahead of schedule...

by a week!  I broke down and put up our Christmas (not 'holiday'...can I get an Amen?) tree & decorations.  And as we were going through the boxes and putting out the Santas and tons of other Christmas figurines, I found this...


I got this wall hanging a little over 10 years ago.  Before I left CA, I gave myself a day of shopping and I found this.  I've seen Mary's things before but this tapestry spoke to me.  It's our theme for Christmas & pretty much throughout the year.  And look at me now, I'm using her fabric to make quilts...LOL!  Who would have thunk it?  And last year I added a little bling to our collection...


Is there anyone else out there that has put up their tree yet?  If you don't want to say, I don't blame you.  Who wants to be called a freak? : )   I sure hope the next three days go by fast!
