Stuffed.... but content.....!

I do hope that those who celebrate Thanksgiving had a wonderful time.

This year I decided to let someone else handle Fibre Junction and celebrated Thanksgiving with Stephen's family.

What a wonderful time we all had.  Everyone pretty much over ate... you know... the normal stuff! lol

On the following day, it is customary for us to do something as a group. Richard, our host, decided that we would walk around New York City. More specifically, we visited the World Trade center.

Look at that majestic tower!

It is the Freedom Tower!

There are still quite a few stories to be added!

I have been told that it will be taller than the original towers.

Quite impressive, don't you think?

This is "us" along the waterway, Battery Park.

Quite the group!

Yes we are a large group.  Hum... 30 if I am not mistaken.  We were much larger for Thanksgiving dinner! ;o)

We all had a wonderful time visiting. I love New York City!  Although I enjoy living in the country, I do miss the city!

Thank you for visiting with me.  Keep well everyone! Cheers!

Turkey time....!

It is that time of the year when we take this special time to be thankful!

I want to thank you for visiting my little corner in cyberspace! Although I do not post as often as I would like, I truly enjoy having a blog.

Happy Thanksgiving!


Keep well everyone!  Cheers!

Magazines.....!

I love magazines!  I think some would say that I am a magazine junkie!  There is just something about looking at wonderful pictures of whatever pleases me.  I especially like to look at holiday issues!

One magazine that I would like to tell you about is MaryJanesFarm.  Why you might ask?

The December/January issue has a nice article on the Buggy Barn Ladies and their annual quilt show.

Oh how I would love to visit!

One day, I will be there!

There's nothing like looking at photographs to take you there. They certainly did a great job of doing that in this issue.

Aside from the quilting article, it's actually a great magazine.  Although I have been raised in a large city, I'm a farm girl at heart and this magazine satisfies that inner calling. ;o)

On the Buggy Barn note, I did start a new project.

Folk Art Bloom by the Buggy Barn ladies!

I'm using lots of plaids as well as scraps from prior hand applique projects.

So far I have 4 blocks prepared, ready for the hand work.

I cannot wait to finish one so I can show & tell!

I'm lovin' how it's turning out!

On the Cyber Club Front, there does not seem to be enough quilters that are interested in participating, so I will put that on the back burner for now. I just thought it would have been nice to have a place for those interested to meet and have fun.

Thank you so much for stopping by!  Keep well!  Cheers!
