    Dawn, a bazillion thank you's for sharing your huckleberry chocolate cordial resources! I just ordered some cherry and huckleberry cordials and can't wait to receive them. I'm tempted to also order the huckleberry daiquiri mix from your first resource and will do that next time! :wink: Oh God, I love this forum! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

      Hey Dawn I thought I'd mentioned this earlier but now I see I didn't. I'm still enjoying the huckleberry lip balm you gave me last year after lunch. I have been rationing it and love it. Thanks again. It's great.

        The gift that keeps on giving! :lol: And, thank you for offering me some lunch once my migraine subsided! It was just what I needed!

          Hi Shirly,

          I want to teleport myself to Montana and try those Huckleberry Pancakes with both of you. Haven't been on the computer in several days so I just caught up with the blog. Finally got my sewing room organized and ready to get busy again as soon as all the family leaves from our Thanksgiving celebration.

            Hi Maryjo,

            My sewing room should be declared a national disaster area! :mrgreen: Just made our turkey dinner today so next week I can focus on drawing SB Sue blocks and hopefully doing hand appliqueing during our Orlando trip coming up early Dec. Also need to make special Xmas gifts too. Have just loved seeing everyone's Houston photos so far and will post several of mine in a day or so.

            HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL OF MY WONDERFUL SOTTT SISTERS AND BROTHERS! :lol:

            Hugs forever,
            Shirley

Rosemary, your beautiful boxes were the perfect touch to all of the gorgeous thank you blocks for our two very special ladies, Debbie and Clara! What an amazing quilting journey this has been!

                      Well, let me just tell you....... Rosemary was stressed big time whilst those boxes were travelling. Knowing that sometimes things get delayed or (heaven forbid) lost, she couldn't relax until she knew that they had arrived safely.

                      Rosemary, you are one cool cookie and very talented girl!!

                                It was great to be able to see Rosemary's presentation boxes and all the blocks. The blocks were all unique. Rosemary, a big thank you for making the special boxes--you are so talented!

                                What a special group of quilters frequent this site!! Thank you so much Dawn for making the smilebox. I felt like I was "there!"
