This morning today is 5 degrees with the wind chill of -18. Schools have closed so I thought I would gear this post towards what we do on COLD winter days. By 7am I will be in the kitchen putting bread dough on to rise. Nothing like hot bread and jelly on a cold day.Continue reading “What Do You do on a Cold Day?”

A Walk On The Beach Wallhanging.

Happy Thursday

This week I have been in a cleaning mood so strike while the iron’s hot. Needless to say not a lot on the sewing front, but I did get in some etching. Today I have started cutting out triangles for another One Block Wonder. I know I said I wouldn’t but I saw this panelContinue reading “Happy Thursday”

Super Bowl Sunday

I am not a football watcher. I feel like that like my hubby feels about all my quilting. So it is a day I stay shut up in my sewing room. I will fix hubby’s football snacks, chips, queso dip, veggies and he will be in front of the tv and very happy. Kansas CityContinue reading “Super Bowl Sunday”

She hadContinue reading “Winter Wonderland”

Acorns Galore

This fall our Oak tree produced so many acorns we stopped raking them up. Now I understand why. This morning we are getting sleet, ice, and snow. There were 8 squirrels in the yard eating their breakfast. Hubby and I sat and just watched them. Tomorrow I will be taking pictures of them. I didn’tContinue reading “Acorns Galore”

Flamingo is Done

Just finished the quilting on the One Block Wonder Flamingo quilt. I think it turned out better than I thought it would. I have grown to like it. Border is next and then done.
