It's going quicker than expected. I actually started sewing the top together tonight. I still don't think I will try and have it quilted before Christmas though. That would cut it really close. Anyway I am pleased with my progress.

Sunday Nov. 8th ( 312/365 )

We have a very large backyard, with four very large trees that have very large amounts of leaves. I think it is quite charming to have a yard full of pretty yellow leaves. Paul hates it. They fall off late in the year. Usually they get snowed on before we get them picked up and then they get soggy and nasty. I'll be honest, they are a huge pain. They're still pretty though.

Saturday Nov. 7th

Today our ward put on a Super Saturday and it was quite super. My favorite thing I made was this harvest sign. I love the colors and the wheat V made out of vinyl. I also made family blocks and a tile with a quote from President Monson.

Thursday 5th

(sorry these are out of order)

I took some more pictures of my Thanksgiving stuff today. I love this Jim Shore pumpkin but often forget I have it. Oops. This year we found it again and I am happy to have it out on display.

Friday the 6th

Forgive me for what I am about to do. I know this picture is not flattering at all but it's really all I've got. Paul and I went to Red Iguana on a date Friday night. Here is Paul enjoying his guacamole.

November 4th

The one that started it all...

I found this big turkey at Hallmark years ago. I thought it was pretty awesome. I couldn't just have one Thanksgiving decoration though. See where this is going? Now I have a small collection of turkeys and a pilgrims and cornucopias and all sorts of random fall stuff. Last night it all came out for it's annual appearance.

November 3rd

This is the quilt that I am taking to quilt group on Thursday. It is also the quilt that I have absolutely no chance of finishing before Christmas. If miracles happen and I actually do finish the top I guess I could just hang that over by quilt rack...
