Settling in for a snow day....

Well getting ready to settle in for the next big storm for the winter. Im really feeling the cold today. We were support to be touring Key West today and on a thirteen day cruise tomorrow. I bet you it is so warm there. Oh well maybe next year. I hated to have to cancel this trip but my husband wasn't able to fly so my mother and I will head to Victoria island in a couple of weeks to visit my brother. Looking forward to spending time with him and his family.
So is everyone preparing for another snow day. I have my grandson here for the night and also started another project.


I bought this ruler when I first started blogging and it has been hanging in my sewing room ever since. I saw a design on the internect a while ago that I have always wanted to try. What a great weekend to work on it. I won this fabric quite awhile ago and it is perfect for what I want to make with it. This ruler makes a great Dresden plate. It should be really pretty.




I finished this tree skirt for my daughter n law for Christmas. It is a Sew Karen-ly created pattern called Woodland Forest. A very easy pattern. I have a few of her patterns that I really enjoy making.





I also have this material for another one of Karen's patterns called Orential Beauty. This is a paper piecing piece. Looking forward to seeing how this one looks.




So I hope everyone is ready for a snow day and have a chance to enjoy their sewing room tomorrow.

  1. I love all those reds for the Dresden plates. Thank goodness, no snow here, but, we do have frigid temps (negative 8 tonight).

  3. I'm sorry you're having so much snow, but it looks like you're using that hunkering-in time for fun things. Love the Dresdens! Stay warm!
