Christmas Sewing

Happy to say I`m sewing again. I try to do an hour a morning after the treadmill. Beautiful weather, a little crispy in the morning. Perfect Fall desert weather.
I started a few scrappy little projects for gifts like these little mug rugs. The lion and wiseman prints were won in a Giveaway last year. The green fabric to right is Debbie Mumm.

More of the Christmas fabric I won including the gingerbread print.

This is a nine patch block for a scrappy table runner.

I am busy cleaning up flower beds, grooming dogs and getting ready for Thanksgiving. My son and daughter in law will cook the turkey while his dad I make dressing and pies. It`s going to be a great holiday! I am blessed to have this beautiful family. Friends from Iowa have been visiting . It`s been a great month.

Happy Thanksgiving!
Cathy

  5. Hi Cathy, thank you so much for your comments on my blog; fellow bloggers like you are the reason I keep going! Sad to hear your hubby is so unwell; we wives all have our crosses to bear, don't we...
    I've just been cruising through your recent blog posts, and enjoying the photos of the landscape. When I look back on my trips to the USA and think about all the places we went to, I think Arizona was one of our favorite states by virtue of the stunning unspoilt beauty. Lucky you to be living there :-)
