My fabric pulls for
Quiltville's Grand Illusion mystery quilt. Nice and scrappy like I like them! Love the bright colors, too!
Squaring up half square triangles is tedious, but it helps my wacky sewing. Some of them come out perfect and I only have to trim the dog ear off. Some need a little more work.
I'm only doing a half version of the mystery which will still yield a good sized quilt. The broken dish units are really cute. Linking up
right here. Go see everyone's pretty units.
At Thanksgiving at my cousin's house, I got to see three of my gifted quilts. The oldest one was probably one of my very first quilts. I was so thrilled to see it worn out and loved, Their kids have newer quilts, but I need to replace the family couch quilt!
I made a mojo turkey the day after Thanksgiving. This was the turkey I stole the guts out of to make the stuffing for Thanksgiving dinner. I marinated it overnight in sour orange (oj and lime juices), cumin, oregano, and garlic. Look at all that garlic! You scrape it off to bake it. Here it is before I roasted it.
And roasted. It looks burnt, but it was delicious. I made black beans, yellow rice and collard greens to go along with it. The leftovers have been great for sandwiches. I'm going to make a turkey soup too. I love me some turkey. Turkey all day!
you're making me hungry. looks yummy! love the fabrics (esp the novelties) you've pulled for the mystery quilt - wonderful.
