Lots to share ...

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your families and friends. We had a very nice dinner with my father in law. I spent Friday with Lisa doing the Black Friday thing ... we do this every year and have a great time. The rest of the weekend was spent getting the inside of the house ready for Christmas ... I love decorating (as you probably already know lol) and this year I had fun changing so things up ... I'll post some pictures later ... but now I should talk about stitching ... or finishing ... or exchanges ... first finishes ...

I had a 3 fair and squares exchanges that I really wanted to get finished so I could enjoy them during the holidays so I sent them off to Nancy. Look at what I received back ...

This cute snowman was stitched by April ... I love the wire hanger and the beads ... what a cutie, don't ya think?

Janice stitched this sweet reindeer for me ... love the simple finishing of this one and the beads really add a nice touch ...

Nancy turned Melissa's squares into an adorable pinkeep that I got to enjoy among my Thanksgiving decorations ...

and this was how Nancy finished my cute turkey ...

Now on to exchanged ... I participated in an ornament exchange in a Yahoo group ... here's the ornament I received from Renee. I just love this design. I've stitched this before, but not for myself ... I was thrilled to see it stitched for me ... and it was finished into a little pouch ... cute cute cute ...

This is the ornament I stitched and finished for Shari. It's a design by Trail Creek Farms ... I though it turned out pretty nice and Shari liked it ...

Thanks for visiting and letting me share more stitching with you. Hope your week is a good one.

I hope you find your Joy in your stitches ...

I'm grateful for long weekends ...
