Last night was Friday Night Sew In and I started off my Thanksgiving vacation with the evening in my sewing room. My daughter kept me company. We put on my little pot belly stove heater, drank some hot cocoa, and watched Say Yes to the Dress. I quilted up my niece and nephew's birthday banners. See what everyone else worked on here
I just love to do a simple one inch cross hatch with my walking foot. I need to run by my fabric store this morning and pick up some more of the turquoise fabric to use as binding for this one.
I also hope to find some candy cane stripe for binding for this door banner that Lorna featured on her blog the other day here
I am going to whip up one for me and maybe a couple others for gifts. I also have some zip pouches all cut and ready to sew now that my zippers have arrived. I started a new handwork project, but will share it tomorrow for Slow Sunday Stitching Sunday. I am going to sew, read, and relax since I have the whole week off this year!
I can hear the excitement in your writing! Looks like you have a great week ahead of you! ENJOY
