Dawn & All thaks for the smilebox postings. They bring back warm memories of our time together and the joy that quilting with friends can bring to our lives. I am wishing a Happy Thanksgiving to all of you, a bit early, but with family coming life is getting busy and I may not get back on the blog much for the next week. Let us all be grateful for those in our lives who helped us develop our love of quilting. I am grateful to have you as my friends!

You are welcome! This was a learning experience for me, but now I am hooked. I have learned so much in the process! And, people like Margo and Mary (MaryRinWI) took the extra time to help me with the Smilebox. TQS members are always there for you whether it be for quilting questions, technical questions. computer questions, or much needed prayers! And, thanks to TQS for posting it where every one can see it! You are all very special to me!

HAPPY DANCE! HAPPY DANCE! Fab, fab, fab Smilebox presentation, Dawn! So well done it brought tears to my eyes! Rosemary, your beautiful boxes were the perfect touch to all of the gorgeous thank you blocks for our two very special ladies, Debbie and Clara! What an amazing quilting journey this has been! And

, all because Edyta was a guest speaker on TQS and Ricky had the foresight to suggest we open up the forum for an exchange! Way to go, Ricky!

JUST TOO STINKIN' COOL!

A very happy quilt maker,
Shirley

Hi Shirly,

I want to teleport myself to Montana and try those Huckleberry Pancakes with both of you. Haven't been on the computer in several days so I just caught up with the blog. Finally got my sewing room organized and ready to get busy again as soon as all the family leaves from our Thanksgiving celebration.

Hi Maryjo,

My sewing room should be declared a national disaster area!

Just made our turkey dinner today so next week I can focus on drawing SB Sue blocks and hopefully doing hand appliqueing during our Orlando trip coming up early Dec. Also need to make special Xmas gifts too. Have just loved seeing everyone's Houston photos so far and will post several of mine in a day or so.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL OF MY WONDERFUL SOTTT SISTERS AND BROTHERS!

Hugs forever,
Shirley
