I am still making things for my sale. I can’t seem to stop even though the sale is only two weeks from next Saturday and I have so many things to get set up.

Here’s my cutting table piled with things to mark. Just the tip of the iceberg.

A dish towel I designed and embroidered along with a matching potholder.

Piles of pillows. This is just a few of them.

I debate with myself if I want to sell this quilt, but I probably will. After all, I can always make another one!

And another. These are large stockings to hold a lot of goodies.

An old doll bed for sale. It comes with a pad and a pillow I made for it.

Piles of pin cushions I embroidered words upon.

I twist twine from strips of fabric and I use it everywhere. To tie back curtains. To wrap around a present. I even have used it to twine around a Christmas tree. I have bags of it for sale. I’ve twisted yards and yards of it over the past year.

Mug rugs or coasters, if you like. I’m still making these.

This is just a few things I will have for sale on December 3rd. It’s coming fast and I have so much to do.

Next week is Thanksgiving already. I can’t believe it. I’m looking forward to having dinner with some of my family. I wish we could all be together, but we are all so spread out and some have other family obligations so we enjoy the ones we can be with. Then the next week I have to go get another shot in my eye. Hopefully I won’t have to go again until after Christmas. David went to his final doctor’s appointment about his shoulder tpday. The doctor told him he was amazing because he healed so rapidly. Usually takes four to six months after the operation he had to get back to normal and it hasn’t even been four months and the doctor said he was good to go. Still needs to watch heavy lifting for a while longer, but other than that, he’s fine.

If I don’t get here until after Thankgiving, many blessings to you all and may you have a very thankful Thanksgiving. We all have something to be thankful to God for. Bye.

As I continue to sew for my Christmas sale on December 3rd, I came across this old pattern that belonged to my mother years ago. I don’t believe she ever made any Humpty Dumpties from it, but she might have and I just didn’t know it. The pattern has to be about forty or fifty years old.

Anyway, as I was going through my patterns I found it and decided to make a Humpty Dumpty. Little did I realize at the time you can’t just make one Humpty Dumpty. They are so darn cute, you want to make more and more. I ended up making six and I still would love to make more. Here are a few I have made.
