ready to trot

my turkeys are done and time to get it basted so it can be finished for thanksgiving decorating...

the flash on the camera has brightened it up more than it actually is.  the border is a nice jo morton gold and the binding will be a dark teal/tan plaid.  this project has been waiting for years and glad to see it getting finished in time for the holiday.  aside from a ceramic cornucopia and a couple of pilgrims, had no other thanksgiving decorations until now.  thanksgiving is a mere 6 weeks from now, but first that all-important anniversary on november 1st....it's been a challenging year.  my former cardiologist (he left the practice) said it was a new normal and it truly is--more maintenance, more watchdog, more tweaks along the way but definitely worth it...otherwise, the turkeys might never have gotten finished....
