The big news here, as well as just about everywhere else in
North America, is the weather. This is
what it looked like outside our front door this morning. It never even got close to a high of freezing. Bob and I were very content to stay inside
with the pups. Schools will be closed
tomorrow and we are not planning to do anything away from home either. I’m not sure if driving to my Tuesday
gathering will be feasible or not. We’ll
see.
Earlier in the week, the weather was quite nice and I was
able to join my Tuesday quilting group, attend my first Guild meeting since August,
and then spend even more time with my once-a-month applique group on Thursday. We knew the weather was going to roll in
Friday evening, so Bob treated me to brunch Friday morning at a restaurant that
was new to us. It was delicious. This turned out to be my busiest week in a
long time.
The Guild speaker was an independent fabric rep who had lots
of giveaways at the end of his talk and I won a fat quarter bundle from
Timeless Treasures. I also received lots
of hugs from friends I hadn’t seen in months.
Quilting continues at a slow pace on my tumbler quilt and
EPP project. I also started work on this
month’s anti-ouch pouches.
Another 500 piece puzzle finish. I am fond of butterflies. The puzzle was loaned to me by Julia.

I'm glad you didn't get bad snow or ice - I hear Mississippi got it bad. We will be kept in for a couple days unti the driveway starts to melt out a bit and the snowplow finally went by at about 5 this afternoon.
Congratulations on the win! The fabric looks beautiful. Glad the weather somehow spared you. No winter here, we've had a lot of rain so far this month. Lots of time for quilting! Stay inside and stay warm.
This storm hasn't hit some areas as hard as they predicted but I'm sure the south isn't ready for the cold to sink even farther down there tomorrow. We only got a little over an inch of snow but it will be below 0 tomorrow morning.
