Happy Monday!  I hope today will bring as beautiful weather as it did today.  It was gorgeous here in San Diego.  I like it that the cooler weather has decided to arrive.  Weather forecast is calling for rain mid week...we'll see about that.  I'm working on No Klucks Here Either! this week.  I have the first turkey done with three more to go.  I'm getting some practice with the blanket stitch instead of a zigzag as I did on the first No Klucks Here!


Instead of a photo in the center of the star I plan on a quilting motif in brown thread.  Something Fall like will work. 


I finished all the blanket stitching on the leaf stems.  After the turkeys are done I'll be assembling the 16 blocks that are Twist n' Turn trimmed.  The green dot will be an inner border so all the blocks will float.  Next border will be a blueish green and then the final border a green print that looks good with the green dot.  The last two fabrics are in the first photo at the top left.


I was able to assemble Kurly Kues top and back.  I've still got some pressing to do, but this is a finish...off to Kerry's Quiting next.


Hope that you have something fun going on in your sewing room.  There is more to admire through the links at Patchwork Times.  Have a wonderful week.

Love those cheddar and blue bow ties. Those colors just radiate together!

Great turkeys. I need something like that for my November/Thanksgiving table. Or maybe just placemats for DH and me.
