Days 5 and 6 of Thanksgiving

 Day 5- the thanksgiving of nature.  Deniska went out and cut this branch for me to use as a centerpiece.  I am going to cut leaves out of construction paper and we are going to write things we are thankful for each day.  This is our new tradition.

Day 6 - I am thankful that I can sew.  I made this dress for Maxie last night upon Deniska's request.  My mama taught me how to sew when I was about 5.  I also re-made the tablecloth in the picture above.  I had bought it about 2 years ago on sale at Wal-Mart but it was about two feet too long.  Today, I cut it off and re-hemmed it.  Thanks Mama for teaching me to sew!

    Hi Susan
    I am thankful I can sew too. I learned some from my mom and also from my 5 home ec classes.

    The new puppy is cute, Jeff had a Sheltie named princess when he was young and she was a very good pet, so hopefully yours will too.
    She is very pretty in her dress. :)
