On Friday I showed a photo of nine-patch blocks that I made out of the border fabric from the bingo board blocks. I said I had no plan for them. Well, they had plans for me -- and here is what happened. The placemats will be donated to the guild for one of the agencies it supports.
Speaking of the guild, this week I need to make an ornament for the exchange at next week's holiday party. I also need to fill the gift box for which I made this runner.
Our Thanksgiving will be the two of us which is just fine. S has good days and less-good days but overall his cognition is declining. Fortunately he can still negotiate the stairs to the basement so that he can sit next to me when I sew (and we watch TV).

Jamie Harrison has written five mysteries set in this southwestern Montana town. The main character is Jules Clement, a hometown kid who went away to college (PhD. in archaeology) and returned for a visit that became long-term when he was elected sheriff. He knows pretty much everyone in the county (and is related to many of them). There are many incomers as well. Each book has a large cast of characters. I gave up on keeping track of when each one joined the story. There are rollicking adventures, wry humor, some romance, some archaeology, and of course a lot of dead bodies.
The first book was published in 1995 and the newest came out this year. In between mysteries Harrison wrote two stand alone novels that I will look up.

Our guild makes Christmas placemats for the meals on wheels organization to include when they deliver the Christmas meals. Thank you for the book review!
