No thank goodness. I just have to close the door. Hopefully i won't be to tired from all the cooking because i want to work on a project later that night when the family goes home....maybe :lol:

It use to be that way for me and I hated it! Now I just make a great big mess and close the door!

I will most likely sew through the upcoming holiday. None of the kids are coming and my Mom and siblings are all meeting in California.

No, thank goodness, as Thanksgiving will not be at my house! I can leave my stuff as-is! It is good to have guests once in a while though, to make me REALLY clean and root out unneeded stuff. I'm glad my Christmas projects won't get slowed down, though.

I will be sewing Thanksgiving day too..no family going to be here that day

I have 36 in all coming for Thanksgiving dinner, but all 4 of my kids will be home! Who Hoo! My dining room table is my sewing room, so yes - it will all have to get put away. :( The worst part is putting it all back because then I can't find anything, even though it is a mess on the table, I know where everything is! Except lost a couple seam rippers and my glasses! Ha-ha! Happy Turkey Day!

I don't pack anything up unless it is going to another room.

Last year we had 25 for dinner at our house - the very first time in 20 years my husband and I had hosted Thanksgiving dinner. Everything went well and we thought the torch had been passed from our mom's to us. For 20 years prior to that we have done 2 dinners every Christmas/Thanksgiving and Easter. My mom is widowed and 74 his mom will turn 80 on Thanksgiving day. But, my DFIL is in poor health this year and my DMIL has decided she wants to do the big dinner at her house is year, I am afraid to say why. My SILs and I are bringing everything but the turkey/stuffing and collards so she shouldn't have too much to do. Luckily for me I have a dedicated sewing room, so even when dinner is at my house Idon't have to move my stuff - just close the door-lol. I do have fond memories of sewing at the kitchen table at our first house when we were just married and then later at our dining room table when the kids were small. Try to enjoy your day, no matter where your sewing table is!!

We are going to the in-laws, all I have to do is make a dish or 2, get the rolls and take the deep fryer to their house. Lucky me and I have Weds. off work too, but have to work Fri and Sat. Not a big deal, I'm not into the black friday sales and all the shoppers

(I'm hoping for a sewing machine table for Christmas, I even printed out a picture and store location of the one I want lol, and set it on my husbands desk, how is that for subtle)[/quote]

That is a great idea! Instead of his desk, I might try his pillow!
