I bought fabric this week to make two pillowcases that I'm going to use to wrap Christmas gifts in. They need to be done by Thanksgiving because we always send our Christmas gifts home with my sisters, so the gifts will be there Christmas day, even if we aren't. Most of my siblings split the holidays between my parents and their in-laws.

Thanksgiving is usually the big holiday when we all get together at my house. This year will be different because my dad broke his hip and had surgery last week. My mom plans to stay home this year, and one of my sisters will stay with her. My brother's FIL had eye surgery recently and can't travel, so his family will stay home with him. There will still be about 40 people here for Thanksgiving, though.
I haven't done much sewing this week because I spent the week Christmas shopping and wrapping. Two of my boys have birthdays the first week of December, so I did some birthday shopping too. I did get one more POD block embroidered.
From Egg to Inferno, a Dragon Keeper's Guide; The Tales of Beedle the Bard and Defensive Magical Theory.
I recently learned that there is going to be a POD quilt along starting in January. I've gone back and forth over this: do I really need another Project of Doom quilt? Not now, but maybe some day. Wouldn't it be great to have the blocks already pieced when I do need one? Surely, one of my future grandchildren will be a Harry Potter fan. So I think I'm going to plan on making another. All I'll need to get is background fabric.

Laura, I hope your Dad's hip heals quickly and well!
Always love seeing your POD blocks - you do such a great job with them!
Hope your Thanksgiving was great, despite all the missing family members. We never get Thanksgiving with family anymore. We're just too far away from everyone. Hey, did you see that they are going to have another PoD quilt-along on Fandom? I guess I'll have to pull out my started blocks, and finish them.
