now that house chores done (except laundry!), can sew with clear conscience...lol...first thing hung up my turkeys! a country threads pattern now out of print...would be right at home in a log cabin but works here as well...one of my favorites....
pulled some blocks from the solids drawer and sewed this up...
one of my 2025 chookshed challenges is to empty the drawer from the remaining solids scraps...
then this got basted and should be a november finish....
more bow ties quilting...you know what that looks like....and christmas stitchery ready for finishing....thank you anni downs for such a cute pattern!
election impression? it was close, we knew it would be...so many democrats are shouting serious gloom and doom...but i say be patient...even with republicans in control, i am quite certain many do not share trump's plans or ideas, after all they tried to get him off the ticket didn't they? i got the impression harris thought she was a shoe-in...but no swing states? not really surprised there...i think immigration was a big factor...am i happy with the choice? not a whit...but i don't believe for a nanosecond that America is done for....the framers knew a lot about dangers of absolute power and established our republic cognizant of same. lastly, God blesses America and pray he will continue to do so...in spite of flawed politicians.
The turkeys are charming! The nine patches are very colorful. Enjoy the weekend!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your hope. It gives me a sense of calm
ReplyDeleteNice turkeys! Yes we must wait and see and pray for the best!
ReplyDeleteVery fun turkeys. I appreciate each project, but especially love the look and message of the stitchery.
ReplyDeleteLots of wisdom in your final paragraph, but I think I missed the part where the Repubs (save a very few) tried to get him off the ticket.
I agree about not panicking! I think the big issue was economics and yes, ignoring immigration laws. I did vote for Trump bc I was ready for a changing of the guard in the White House!!!!
ReplyDeleteThere is always so much going on at your place. Lots of progress being made. It's only 4 years and it will be over, he can never be president again.
ReplyDeleteYour turkey are cute and you Anni stitchery will turn into something lovely. She has such quirky designs. I hope your prophecy is correct and sense prevails in coming presidential terms.
ReplyDeleteGod blesses America indeed! You're correct, the framers knew what they were doing. I love the color red, always have, and that is not at all a political statement, it's simply a fact.
ReplyDeleteI love your turkeys :-)
ReplyDeleteI like what your doing with the solids............
ReplyDeleteLove those turkeys!
