Winter Wonders

I live in Minnesota.  Some would like to believe that winter here is a challenge.  Maybe it is sometimes.  Not so much though if you have a good pair of gloves and a warm coat.  We had our first storm of the season roll through this past weekend.  Just enough snow to sled on and make everything pretty.  I have to say that I enjoy it as much as a sunny spring day (as long as I’m inside looking out!).

 This the view from my front door this morning. The sun just coming over the house.

Because of the snow, I had a great excuse to just stay inside and watch it come down and sew.  Absolute heaven.  Since getting back from market, I’ve been on an organizing kick.  I found a bunch of really old projects when I was going through things and decided to finish them….all!

I had help too.  Rosie, my trusty machine quilting assistant spent her weekend running off with my quilting gloves.  Fortunately, she is a creature of habit and I always know she will hide them near her dish.

    She’s persistant and knows what drawer they are in. We have trouble with white socks too - just the clean ones!
