Happy Thanksgiving to my Canadian readers!

 


- THIS is a dose of nostalgia.

- And HERE is something that would be cheap to make - and would serve all sorts of purposes (including gift giving!).

- Have a look at the wonderful weavings by THIS artist!

- Quilters might find THIS a good resource.

Today's quote is from  JRR Tolkien...."If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world"

    1. Thank you! There will be no song from me because I have it on good authority that I should NEVER sing anywhere that people can hear me. Food for sure though!
