Section that I helped arrange.

Matching Circus quilts

I helped with the silent auction at the Holiday Quilt show and Auction on Friday night.  It is held every two years.  I didn't get to town in time to see the show, it is always very well done.  They not only display the quilts by hanging them, they also have beds and decorations.  Themed rooms and such.  And it is a wonderful cause, education and research.  I was so busy working to set up the silent auction quilts with my friends, that I really did not take very many photographs.

This is my Design Wall Monday post for this week.  Check out Judy's blog to see what everyone else is up to.

Just an FYI, my blog hop giveaway will be drawn tomorrow, so there is still time to enter.  Go to this post.

Thanks for stopping by!

Giving Thanks Quilters Blog Hop Party

Michelle is hosting another Blog Hop Party and I am joining in!  This time the theme is Giving Thanks. One of  the things that I feel most thankful for is the wonderful sunsets that I am lucky to enjoy looking off my back patio!  This time of year the Sun puts on a show nearly every night!  And since we look out over the Southwest part of Sanpete Valley we have an exceptional view of the sun going down each night!

Check out Michelle's blog for the list of all participating quilt artists!  She is so kind to put this all together and spends quite a bit of time making sure that everything is going like clockwork.  Please take a minute to look around her blog and to also comment and tell her Thank you!

For my giveaway I have a See me Sew tote bag kit!  It has a wonderful toile print as the main fabric.  It is featuring Riley Blake fabrics.    

I don't believe in making my readers jump through multiple hoops, so please just leave a comment on this post telling me what is your favorite pie (or other dessert) for Thanksgiving dinner.  My favorite is Pecan Pie! Extra delish if there is Kahlua in it!  Thanks for stopping by, I hope you take a minute to look around! 

I will be drawing a name on November 27th.  One entry per person please!  Thanks.

On my Wall this Monday

Design Wall

Project I want to focus on

More wrapped cord for a bowl

Prototype Wine Bag

For my Design Wall Monday post I pulled some more blocks out of the Sandi Cummings class bag.  It makes me wonder what happened (or didn't?) to the guy on the bottom right hand side.  It looks like he didn't get a full spa treatment during the class. I will pull out the book and reread what we did in class (it was in 2005 or so)  I really like the blocks.  I am looking forward to playing with them this week.  Check out what is on everyone else's wall at Judy's blog.

I was able to get more cording wrapped for another bowl.  One of the bowls I made last week sold.  I am also trying to get wine bottle gift bags made.  I sewed a prototype and it needs some tweaking.  I also made a pouch which I filled with a bunch of goodies for the Quilters Blog Hop Party!  Over 150 blogs are hosting giveaways!  My giveaway is in this post.
