Does this look familiar?

I decided I would add these to the four inch 4 patches I’ve been making as leaders/enders.

Have a great day

This Summit Stitches quilt is my clear favorite this month.

I also finished this throw quilt.

And these bags.

Have a great day

My current read.

Our peach oleander is blooming and it is lovely.

Gracie with her emotional support can. Don’t worry, we have a can opener that leaves smooth edges and we check to make sure nothing is sharp. Also, she just likes to carry it around. Silly girl! She always makes me laugh and has been a great comfort.

Speaking of comfort, my girl Winslow has been sticking close by as well. She is such a sweetheart.

I loved this puzzle. And better yet, no missing pieces.

Have a great day

Did you sleep in today? I did! And I failed to prepare my Black Friday Deal post ahead of time. So if you are just getting to it, here are a few of the best deals around.

Fat Quarter Shop always has the best deals and I LOVE their mystery grab bags!

Not to be outdone, Connecting Threads is another place I always shop on Black Friday. Great deals and a free gift? I’m in.

You know I have mad love for all things AccuQuilt. And they never disappoint. Here are just a couple of their specials. Check out those clearance deals!

I try not to inundate you all with ads for affiliate sites. But the commission I earn helps to cover the costs associated with a blog of this size. I appreciate so much when you click through from my site to make a purchase as it adds a few Pennie’s to the blog fund.

Have a wonderful day and happy shopping!

My version of this quilt may be quite boring. This is my final fabric pull. Yep, just four fabrics. And I’m only making half as many blocks.

Per Bonnie’s rules, I won’t share which dies I’m using, but I am using dies.

Step One is now done. This mindless sewing was perfect for me just now.

Have a great day

I’m so thankful for all of my dear readers. Your friendship, kindness, encouragement, suggestions, and comments mean the world to me.

I especially appreciate all your sweet comments about my precious Willy. I feel badly about not responding to each one. I’ve read them all several times and each time, I fall apart.

I hope you all have a wonderful day filled with good things.

We lost Sweet Willy due to severe pancreatitis along with other complications. After two whole days of treatment, he was worse, not better. It is hard to say what triggered it; most pancreatitis in dogs is caused by eating fatty foods such as table scraps.

This was not the case for Willy.

Mr. Wonderful makes our dog food from fresh, healthy ingredients and they do not get table scraps.

However, in talking with the vet this week, we learned that the day after Thanksgiving is their busiest day of the entire year! Why? People share their Thanksgiving dinner with their pets. Pancreatitis can cause severe pain, nausea, very high glucose levels, and sadly, it can be fatal.

So please, be careful when celebrating with your pets this holiday.

This has languished long enough. It’s time I get it finished.

I love how these blocks turned out. I just haven’t figured out how to quilt it.

I’m leaning toward using one of these three pattern board designs.

Feel free to weigh in. Have a great day.
