Well for all the hype for the past few days of an impending storm with the possibility of 6 to 8 inches of snow - our area received about 2 inches. And as far as I'm concerned that is fine with me. We did have ice, sleet and very cold weather so it kept me home for 3 days.
I work on 6 quarter blocks at a time. I cut 3.5 and 2 inch strips of contrasting fabrics and pair them up. Then I can just sit and sew. I pin the three segments together as I watch TV.
I will probably be rearranging g them as I sew them into blocks.
More in progress. Last night I did sew four quarter blocks together - just to make sure they fit. I like the secondary design they make where four blocks meet.
So much fun to sew but super messy. I leave a trail all through the house even though try as I might to shake all the pieces off before I leave the sewing room.
And I really like to read during snow days so I finished a coupled of books that I had downloaded from our county library system - one a historical romance the other the first in the Lord John Grey novels, "Lord John and the Private Matter" by Diane Gabaldon. Quite different than the Outlander series - also much shorter. I think I read that she wrote them intending them to be short stories.
