We have a lot of snow and wind today. The roads to my husband's plant are closed, so not only am I home, but so is he. No sewing for me! :roll: Ah, well. There's always tomorrow!

No snow, 82 degrees and sunny here. Couldn't resist rubbing it in just a little. I just finished two quilts as gifts and need to get them in the mail this week.
Right now, I'm busy making a dozen folded star trivets to give my coworkers. I found the free pattern/tutorial on Jennifer Kiera-Oona's blog: (http://bronzewombat.blogspot.com/200...patchwork.html). They have been fun to make, but take a lot of fabric. I have 4 done and 8 more to go.

Nope...working, then church tonite, so no sewing today!!
But chilly as the dickens here....only in the mid-40s, with overnights in low 30s. That's very rare for us, actually!!!

Oh man, it's cold and snowing everywhere! I'll send some of my 85 degrees to everyone. Stay warm and be careful on those roads. We're back to shorts in Florida. Such boring weather here. Yawn. Wish I could travel and do a little skiing on all that new powder!

I also worked on strip piecing for four patch blocks for a charity quilt and got started on a snowman apron.
I have Chocolate Coins in gold bags from Trader Joes that will be in each thread catcher when I give them out. I worked when I got home and have only 1 more to make.

I need to sew learn how to post pictures. got the digital camera, and we were all too busy to get the girls to teach me to load pictures with it. michigan is windy--60 mph, supposedly. and just a inch of snow. snow has really been bypassing us, except last winter i hear they got lots in sc lower michigan, but we were in san antonio. Well i sure enjoyed the dogs and snow. our yellow lab is like moma, he goes out, and gets right back inside. sewed all day, diaper holder and remembered the silicone for my thread on the pfaff so things were smother after papa went to bed. yahooo!!!!!!
