Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!!  I know we did!  I ate so much…too much! 🙂  I didn’t go shopping on Black Friday.  It’s just not my thing.  I’ve done it before, but never felt it was worth it.  I did a little online shopping though.  Good deals and free shipping.  You can’t beat it!  Poor Elaina was sick with a fever since Friday.  She had to stay home sick today too.  Her fever spiked again early this morning.  I just checked on her and she’s snoring like a hibernating bear!

I wanted to thank everyone for all the kind comments on the original “Ode To Virginia.”  I was blushing as I read them.  Well, now I’d like to share “Mini Ode To Virginia.”  Deb, once again did a beautiful job.  It was a challenge to try and think of different quilt designs, so the quilts didn’t look the same.  There are similarities, but different.  I tell ya, I felt like a magician digging into my black hat for quilting tricks!! LOL!!

That’s a lot of pictures!!!  Just a few more.  The back.

 Before quilting.

I used Hobbs Wool, So Fine threads top and bobbin.   I think there were 3 thread color changes. Everything is freehand.  I used my straight ruler and a purple air erasable marker.  Those markers are priceless.  I go through one or two of them on each quilt I quilt.

I’m off to check on Elaina.  Hope everyone has a great day!
