Winter Weather

We experienced our first snow last Friday!  It was beautiful and very wet!


It was a good time to get lots of sewing done and some cleaning up in the sewing room!

I finished this pillow.  I had been working on the embroidery earlier in the fall and then used scraps from the plaid/reds from the Christmas quilt that I recently finished to complete the pillow.  Any finish is always nice even when it's a small one!

I also selected my fabrics for the new Bonnie Hunter Good Fortune mystery.  I am not doing the full size this year, only 1/4 to 1/3 of the blocks.  I also chose not to go scrappy.  I changed her oranges to the honeycomb yellow and then darkened her blues to more of a navy.  

Cici thought the honeycomb yellow was a good match for her!

I spent Saturday at the Open Sew at Sew Sweet Quilt Shop in Brunswick.  I worked on my block of the month and then these little tiny parts to the Secret Santa mystery quilt I started.  Some of these pieces finish at 3/4 of an inch!  I am now caught up on all the clues.  There is only one more Friday clue and then the big reveal/finish on Black Friday! -  Just in time to start the Bonnie Hunter Mystery!

With all the snow, Muffin has decided to work on achieving "house cat" status.
She has found Cici's sleeping basket on my fabric counter.

It's truly exhausting trying to achieve "house cat" status!
