Scrappy maple leafs, pretty pumpkins, and a perky turkey add up to Thanksgiving fun in this holiday wall hanging/banner. It combines pieced and appliqued blocks (fusible applique recommended) for the best of both worlds. For the tail feathers, take your pick from two options: Use ready-made "poly-silk" leaves as shown in the sample quilt; or substitute appliqued fabric feathers, choosing from leaf shapes or more primitive feather shapes. Full-size templates for all appliques are included in the fully illustrated 13-page pattern. Use up scraps and fabrics from your stash for this Thanksgiving project to use throughout the autumn season.

I am a published sewing and quilting author with several books and many magazine articles to my credit. My most recent books are The Quilting Answer Book and The Sewing Answer Book, both published by Storey Publishing. I learned to sew from my grandmothers, great grandmother, and my Mom when I was just 7 or 8 years old. I've been sewing ever since. I added quilting to my repertoire in the 1980s and worked for a major quilt book publisher as the Editor-in-Chief for 5 years. Now I have my own business, designing quilts and tote bags and anything else that strikes my fancy. I loved taking a recent mixed media class online and had fun letting my "little girl" play with art materials. Of course, I'm using fabric in my "art."
