Looking for a St. Patty's Day Bargain

Go here...
www.quiltartsonline.com

All fabrics are 50% today. FQ's for $1.25. This sale is incredible, and there is a lot of goodies.

I just got outta there with 11 fat quarters, and 5-1/2 yards of assorted materials for a mere $32. Outrageous!!...

...and so goes that alleged fabric diet (sigh) - my stash was awaiting a little updating anyhow.

BTW, thanks John (AKA Quilt Dad) - this sale was awesome. Wish I had another $200 to spend :-)

I Missed my Chance...

...to be a real Pioneer Woman. And to make a real Thanksgiving dinner. If only... If only I'd had a shotgun this morning...

We have followed these turkeys over the last 5-6 months. In about May, they began appearing in the early morning hours, walking right through our yard. Now, we live in a subdivision, not out in the wooded country. It's quite a sight to see a turkey family of 15-20 (5 adults, rest little birds) walking down the sidewalk!

Now they are obviously all grown, and it is an even bigger sight to see the flock of large adult birds within 10 feet of my study window, oblivious to the fact that many of us will be eating their kin next week for dinner. They are just lucky it is November, not May (open season for Turkey!).

A little non-Quilty Fun...

I have come across these on several blogs lately. It's kind of fun and rather unexpected. Can you guess the questions (& answers from the pictures) without going to the link??!

The questions:
1. What is your first name?
2. What is your favorite food?
3. What high school did you go to?
4. What is your favorite color?
5. Who is your celebrity crush?
6. What is your favorite drink?
7. What is your dream vacation?
8. What is your favorite dessert?
9. What do you want to be when you grow up?
10. What do you love most in life?
11. What is one word that describes you?
12. What is your flickr name?

Leave me a note if you do this, so I can check out your mosaic, too!
