I managed to finish most of my works in progress before the Thanksgiving and Christmas craziness really got under way.
I knocked out the two big applique squares for my planned "Best of the West" quilt. They were really fun to do and I loved the way they came out. They were a pretty good stash buster too!
I"m excited to put this together with some other squares and see how it all comes out.
I also made the grocery bag holder. Let me just say that I had more problems with the elastic than I think I should have, but I managed to figure it out and it's working like a charm to cut down on the plastic bag clutter.
I also found a little time to put crochet trim on my cherry border tea towel.
I still have not been brave enough to try the sock knitting pattern but I'm hoping to give it a shot after Christmas when everything calms down.
We had a great Thanksgiving with lots of family and great food. My plan now is to get into the full Christmas swing and knock out some holiday crafts. Hopefully I'll have lots of fun stuff to post!
