I Like Thursday #296


It's time for Thursday Likes! Please visit LeeAnna to link up with more participating blogs. It's done!! My Laurel Ridge quilt is complete! This was not an easy quilt for me but I'm happy I finished it and it came out really good! I have already washed the backing but it needs to be ironed. I'll also iron the quilt top one more time. I've decided on using a pantograph so I ordered that yesterday. I'll be quilting it soon. I'm so happy that this quilt is done! Phew!!

My Christmas cactus is full of blossoms this year. It's a little early but still so nice to see! It's such a pretty pale pink.

I've really been enjoying knitting socks lately so I got this book. There are so many great patterns throughout this book. I've pretty sure my next sock project will be from this book.

Our prompt this week asks if we made turkey hands in school. I can't remember if I did or not but I do remember both my kids coming home from school proudly displaying their 'turkeys' for me! I think it is the cutest thing! I may have saved them. I'll have to look around.

I can't believe next week is Thanksgiving! Where does the time go??? Have a great weekend!

  2. Congratulations on finishing the Laurel Ridge top. I look forward to seeing how you quilt it. The color on your Christmas cactus bloom is so pretty. I hope it lasts through the end of the year.

    1. Thank you, Jocelyn! Laurel Ridge was very demanding for me. I'm so glad all those blocks are now a quilt top!
