How about another stitch-a-long everyone? by
Cheryl Isaak
While I'd love to try another new type of stitching, until life settles down

Marbek Nativity by
John Quinn
I've finally started the nativity on navy Aida. The fabric is cut and
I am now griding the center panel. I am wondering if I should make
any color changes because I'm using dark fabric? Any advise on this
project would be appreciated.

Happy Thanksgiving!! by
Dawne Peterson
Have a good day wherever you are, with, I hope, at least of few of the
things that will make you happy. I will be slogging through the snow to
visit DD's cat, as DD is away, and so get to watch football at her place,
since I don't have the channel, and, I hope, see the Saskatchewan
Roughriders...
