Hope everyone had a great weekend ... are you all ready for Thanksgiving? I can't believe it's only a few days away. I love Thanksgiving ... family, football and good food ... what's not to love! lol Last week Monica (my daughter-in-law) came over for a visit and brought me the cutest fabric pumpkins for Thanksgiving ... if you remember I shared some pictures of pumpkins she made for Halloween ... she's getting really good at making them ... they look so cute on my kitchen table.

Last week I finished BBD's Waiting For The Harvest ... I liked stitching this design until I got the my initials. My initials were too wide for the original design, so I stitched to keep the design square ... I really wish I'd left the initials off, for found a small alphabet ... funny how you can be in love with a design when you start on it, but my the end of it you are just kinda ho hum about it ...

Fabulous finishes! I like how your BBD turned out despite the frustration. I've heard the same issue with other ladies with M names.
The pumpkins from your DIL turned out nice!
Gorgeous finishes. I love the fabrics you have.
The pumpkins are cute! So are your finishes - including the BBD finish!! Perhaps you could put it away for a few weeks, and then when you take it out, you might just love it again...!
