Thanksgiving is over ................already!

And so is Fall Market.  
Here I am with my fellow Moda Designers Kate Spain and Deb Strain, my neighbors in Moda's Designer's Row.


Two more days (at least) for the Pumpkins



And then this weekend the pumpkins get put away until next year and 


 2015 Holly Tree Lane and the winter quilts come down from the loft.

I've already located a good sized tree on the front of our property and when Jake comes home this weekend, he and Pep will cut it down and bring it in.
The Treeskirt is waiting.


Then slowly Tree Dancer and


Holly, Jolly Christmas and all of the winter quilts will come down from the loft.


All sorts of exciting things are in the works.
I'm designing the next Mystery Quilt that will start in February as well as patterns for my next line.
And
Lynne from Kansas Troubles came up with this great idea for a BOW - that's a Block of the Week - that will include Moda Designers Betsy Chutchian, Lisa Bongean, Jo Morton, Lynne,  Carrie Nelson of Moda and me.
We'll be designing 6" blocks and posting them each week- mine will be applique of course.  This is really going to be fun.

Also somewhere in here my Over the Meadow will be available on QNNTV.

Whew - that's a lot going on as well as the month of Christmas.

But meantime we've got a treat.
Primitive Quilts and Projects magazine has a new magazine "Quilts We Love"


and their first issue has the patterns for my Pokeberry Quilt.


And they very nicely gave me a couple of copies to give away.
So......
while Thanksgiving is over
we do need to keep remembering what we are thankful for.
Make a comment telling us what you're particularly thankful for as we head into this holiday season.
Next Moda Monday, we'll draw 2 names and give away a couple of issues.

Right now, I need to go feed my cardinals and others at the feeders.  
Have a good one, ladies.
