    Default Snow Days Fun

    Been snowed and iced in for the past two days... authorities have asked us not to drive unless it's an emergency, as some of our interstates have been shut down due to "black ice". So I've stayed in and worked on completing tops from some old blocks and fabrics I bought and never did anything with. Here are the two tops I have finished on my snow days!

    The first is some old Friendship Stars I made years ago. The second is a baby boy "farm" quilt, an Irish Chain.

    great work for a snow day! Glad you didn't lose power so that your days could be so productive.

    Just a question of interest .... when was the last time you had a snow day?

    We don't get any snow days here but really like what you have done. Both tops are very nice and what a great way to spend a few days.
