Turkey

OMG!  I am so glad to get this Tom to show up, finally!  You don't know the computer hassles it took to get this bird here. I'm going to say he's on his side because he's resting up for thanksgiving... just turn your head to the left. (He is part of a bird quilt I made a few years before I blogged, and I had to ask my daughter in law to take the pictures because I didn't even have them on this computer.) I'll show those pictures another time. For now, I'm going to share this on Val's blog - subject for today is Turkeys - see the side bar.

 

 

Hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving Day.

 

Hugs,

Terri

Paper Piecing Again

Working on a table topper for a fellow Harry Potter fan. It'll be 5 Mimbulus Mimbletonias.

The red flowers with the green - it's going to look quite Christmassy.

Thank you to all the Veterans for their service... This is a holiday we should be celebrating every day.

Have a lovely sewing weekend.

 

Hugs,

Terri

Some Halloween Pictures and some quilt blocks

The candy is in the back (left) of this picture in a large plant pot.

 Kids took a plant if they wanted one. We had lots of different ones this year, but the most popular were the Pearl Plants made up by my friend, Paulette White.

 I had my new Hedwig (owl) from my sister, Barbara Zeidl hanging up and the Spell Book that howls and laughs and vibrates on the table where the kids could touch  it. More plants and some free seeds on the table, too.

 Lots of lighting this year, and webbing done by the Hubster = Harry Potter.

 

 Some pictures that turn into ghouls as you walk by (from the $1 store)...

and a tiny Hogwarts banner that I paper pieced.

 Here's the banner, a pumpkin and the mandrake I finished today... you can't see his beady little black eyes.  He was fun to make.

 

So that's it for Halloween this year. Now to start some more plants for next year.
Hope you all had as much fun as I did.

 

Hugs,

Terri
