Blizzard Busyness!!

Yep, not that it was EVER on my bucket list, but I've now been in a blizzard!!



I've never seen snow coming down that long and  with that much wind!  Yikes!



While snow is special and pretty...this much is a big pain in the butt!!  There's just no where to put it all...



We are all land (snow) locked here in our neighborhood!!  Everyone's drive ways and sidewalks are all cleared by us homeowners...  but our street still has 34" of snow so no one can even get out of our driveways!!



 All of which, has involved lots of hot beverages and given me lots of time to sew!!  Yeah, baby!!


If you remember, our local quilt guild has a year long UFO activity.  I turned in my list of 15 UFO's in October.  These snowed-in days have allowed me to complete five projects that I can cross off my list!!  I had completed several stitchery hand projects while stuck in my chair with the knee surgeries, that I finally finished up.  Yay!


I made small pillows that will sit nicely on my library shelves!  This one is Henny Penny!



This little pumpkin one will be great this fall!!



And this big Halloween one will come out in October!!



And this last one will be just perfect on my couch come December!!



I also finished this charm square quilt called Oops-A-Dasiy!  


Can you tell I love rickrack???  LOL!!
I designed and started this quilt before we even moved to this house...over two years ago!



so I am very happy it is finally finished!!



Yogi is not liking all this snow!!  It's so high, that when he is outside on the walk, driveway or sidewalks, he is fenced in like a tall maze... he keeps trying to find the grass...



But he is wondering what all y'all are working on these days?
