    I started cutting my step 4 last night. Didn't get too far but still plan to have it done in time for the final leg of our train trip.

    OH too fun!!!! I love talkie-things ... and have a few, but for indoors. Of course, the cackling witch. And a black cat that screeches realistically like you stepped on its tail. He stays out all year, just for when I need something to change the pace when someone is here. OK, I confess I sometimes need it, myself, just for a laugh!! And lots of talkies for other season. The Easter Bunnies will go into their hiding spot this weekend.

    I too give away full sized chocolate bars ... the later in the night, the more you get!

    And me too, the geese will be done before Monday. I figure that I'm further north than most, so the geese are later coming home. (allthough truth be known, most don't bother flying south anymore, and stay here all winter)

    Your quilt as a tabletopper is even nicer with those china pieces sitting atop!

    Default Cajun's Flying Geese in Waiting!

    Okay I've finally finished my Flying Geese. I have never had problems with these but somehow I did on these. Could be my mind was somewhere else; or I want the Flying Geese Rulers so might just be I want an excuse to buy them! lol

    Like I really need new rulers! I have a 6-tier skirt hanger behind the door in my sewing room with all my rulers attached there! Went looking for the round belt hangers couldn't find them so thought hey this skirt hanger is great! It works for me at any rate.

    Hugs,
    Cajun

    You have so much fun!!! I miss the kids coming to the house, but they don't trick or treat here any longer. It is much safer for the kids, but I do miss seeing them.

    Sadiemae,

    I think the parents enjoy the display as much as the kids do, or more. 10-12 year old boys just LOOOVE the screaming witch mat. In our neighbourhood we see parents walking with their kids and watching from the curb. At our house, they come right up with the kids. A lot of times I hear the everyone oohing and aahing quite a bit before they ring the doorbell.

    And quilte, it's one bar per kid or how would I end up with leftovers for myself? lol

    I think I need to work on some geese after work.

    You do it exactly the same here. When you post a reply "click on Go ADvanced". Just the same.
