Happy Thanksgiving

Goodness, I can’t believe it’s been over 2 months since I last blogged.  I’m not sure why I haven’t, but am going to try to be better in the future.   Mr. CnW and I did take a couple of trips and I had arthroscopic knee surgery for a torn meniscus, but those aren’t really excuses.    I’ve taken lots of pictures to share and I promise to post them soon.  Thanks to all of you who emailed me or let me know that you missed me.   I am thankful for each and everyone of you who takes the time to read my blog.  

 

In the meantime, I thought I’d share some of my fall decorating, because Christmas décor is right around the corner.   (actually, most of it is up already…Smile)

 

I’ll just let you enjoy the pictures and say that I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your loved ones.

I love these little pillows that Karen made for me a couple of years ago.  Aren’t they cute?  Sandy (no blog) made the box to put them in.  Perfect fit!

I think I’ve shown this banner before.  It’s by Primitive Gatherings and has 4 seasonal inserts. I just recently finished the winter one, so will show you that soon.

This pillow was a project in the very first Primitive Quilts and Projects magazine.

The quilt is called “Autumn Quilt” by Heart to Hand.   I also just finished the Christmas one but haven’t had it quilted yet, so it may be next year before you see it.

These next pictures are of the wooden box that Mr. CnW made for me.  I change the arrangement according to the season.

So, that’s it for Fall.   I’m sure that on Friday everyone will be madly decorating for Christmas if they haven’t already.   I’d love to see all your pictures, so, if you have a blog, be sure and let me know when you’ve posted them.  

Happy Thanksgiving!
