Thanksgiving Blessings

Using quilts for holidays....

makes decorating fun and festive!

Use on shelves, ladders,

tables or over the back of the couch.



Using quilts as table toppers

adds color and variety

to your holiday tradtions!

This quilt is an original quilt design

called Pumpkin Sky it has been a favorite.



Using traditional blocks

in fall colors creates a unique quilt.

This quilt was made

from a neighborhood quilt group

as a block exchange.

Extra blocks were left-over

so they became a label on the back of the quilt!



MIXED BLESSINGS

This is a fun idea

for your Thanksgiving Dinner table favors.

Each is filled

with the items listed below,

wrap in celophane bags

and tie with ribbons and bows,

place card on each

with the Thanksgiving message attached.

If you would like to stop by

and pick up a card with the message attached

so you can make your favors

we have a sample ready for you to pick up

and make copies for your guests.


A Mix of Blessings

BUGLES: Each is shaped as a Conucopia or Horn of Plenty to remind us of our ancestors and our heritage and that our lives are filled with blessings.


PRETZELS: They represent our arms folded in prayer to give thanks.


CANDY CORN: A lesson on Frugality. During the first winter the pilgrims were each allotted only 5 kernels of corn per day because the food was so scarce. The next year was a bounty as ours can be.


DRIED FRUIT: Thanksgiving is the celebration of the harvest from the field and trees. Preserve harvest for times of need and share.


NUTS & SEEDS: Seeds represent future hope and promise, the potential of a bounteous harvest for the next season if they are planted and well tended.


THE MIX: We are each given a unique combination of blessings. Give thanks and enjoy them!!
