I can see the weekend waving goodbye. Oh, hello Monday!

Happy Monday morning everyone!!! Welcome to Monday Musings! I hope you had a great week. It’s been a fun week here! Monday was guild, Wednesday was sew day with friends, and Thursday night Chicken Legs and I attended the boys’ first theater performance of the year. They did the Wizard of Oz – short version!! Braden was a stage manager and Dalton was Toto! It was so funny to see my 5’10” tall 7th grade grandson crawling around on the floor in a dog costume! But he did have second billing on the program! LOL After photos, on to the good stuff!!
Here’s how my story ended for the week of 11/18 – 11/24/24:
- Guild meeting today. DONE!! We had a great meeting. For the program, various members demonstrated tools they love. I did a demonstration on how to make a V block with the Studio 180 Design tool, and showed a few others from my stash.
- Sewing with Friends on Wednesday hopefully. DONE!! We had a great therapy session! LOL I worked on my Virtual Cookie Exchange Blog Hop project.
- Finish Gnome for Thanksgiving blog hop project and post. DONE!! You can see the post HERE.
- Whatever suits my fancy! DONE!! Went to the boys’ play and did some rearranging in my studio – still a lot to do though!
My plans for the week of 11/24 – 12/1/24:
- Continue working on Virtual Christmas Cookie Exchange project.
- Start work on Island Batik December project.
- A little cleaning in the studio.
- Start quilting a T-shirt quilt for a friend.
- Whatever suits my fancy!

Its the middle of the week and I hope your week is going well. Just finished some more prep for tomorrow and taking a break and catching up. Funny about the tall Toto!
Hi Brenda, isn’t it fun when things work out as planned. Have a great Thanksgiving week and thanks so much for the party!
Your grandsons are precious, Brenda. It sounds like it was a wonderful production. I bet the kiddos had a ball. I wish you a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family. Hugs.
Happy Thanksgiving! My week will be spent (mostly) preparing to host Thanksgiving dinner, so lots of cleaning & tidying and a bit of cooking too. Perhaps some sewing, if I’m really good!
Glad you had a fun week with friends and family. It is time to start thinking about the December project, indeed. Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving, Brenda!
You did really well on your goals last week. Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
So nice you were able to get in some sewing therapy with friends! I was kitting up more winter sewing projects and I did do a little cleaning in my sewing room yesterday, not that anyone else would notice but I do and it made me feel a bit better.
I’m into cleaning and food prep the rest of the week, so have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
