Turkey Trot


Turkey Time for Mosaic Monday
and Three or More Tuesday

I'm joining Mary at Little Red House today for Mosaic Monday and Tam @ The Gypsy's Corner for Three or More Tuesday. This is my first attempt at a photo mosaic. My friend Maggie at Normandy Life gave me a tutorial this past week. I no doubt need to give this more practice, but wanted to share my turkeys with you. Happy Thanksgiving to all of my friends in Blogville.


Wishing each of you blessings for Thanksgiving.

The summer we married, my husband was in graduate school, and I was employed as a teacher. We took a portion of our savings that summer and purchased a sailboat. We christened our Catalina 22, “Hyacinths For The Soul” after Saadi’s poem. Our "Hyacinths" provided years of pleasure.

    Hi, Sarah,
    I think you did a fantastic job on your mosaic. I would not have a clue how to do one. I would definitely need a tutorial. I loved seeing all of your festive Thanksgiving decor! I am wishing for you and your family a wonderful time at Thanksgiving! Vicki

    Thanksgiving is such an inspirational time and I so enjoy seeing how everyone views it -- mosaics are especially great to show the many sides and meanings. Yours is very special. Happy holiday from all of us and thanks for stopping by.

    Hi, Sarah... I just wanted to drop back by and say, "Hi," and that I eagerly look forward to your post tomorrow. I love Royal Crown Derby. I have a few salad plates in Lombardy, but your pattern (Old Avesbury) is just divine. Can't WAIT to see it! I'm a bit of a dish nut, but I think you know that. I just haven't been tablescaping very often on Thursday. You, though, are the connoiesseur of dishes, and I love seeing your arsenal of wonderful shiny objects! :-)

    XO,

    Sheila

    That's a great Mosaic Sarah! Very festive! I've never done one but they look kind of fun! Hope you and your family have a wonderful Thanksgiving! Being Canadian it's just another work day up here for us, but we know how special a holiday it is for all of you! Have fun! Sherri : )
