Heavy snow fall this morning just as the commuters have to hit the trail, I am thankful I do not have to get out on the roads. This morning started out nice and warm, then just about 6:30 it started snowing very heavily. After all it is winter in Idaho, I heard on the radio this morning that a few homes in North Idaho, have collapsed from the weight of the snow. They must not be built like they use to, I lived in North Idaho as kid we always had heavy snow from November to late March, I never heard about any roofs caving in.



There are a total of 12 sampler blocks, each block has it's own challenge at piecing. I had finished 8, the remaining 4 were cut out and waiting, they have been waiting for 2 years now. I think it is time to get it finished.
In the evening I am still quilting the frienship star quilt, "Working through the Blues".
I also have caught up on a BOM Mystery quilt offered by Claudia's Quilt Shoppe
So it is not like I don't have anything to do on a snow day.
Happy Quilting!

I love the photo with the bird in the tree. That would make a beautiful postcard. Found you through Bren's blog.
ReplyDeletePoor lil' bird. Send him my way, we are only expecting rain.
ReplyDeleteI love the blue quilt you have in the hoop. Once I get caught up with knitting and dolly clothes I have blues lined up for a tiny tumbler quilt. For now I will just come to look at your pretty blue quilt.
ReplyDeleteSend us some snow!

OK-- you definitely need to get a 'barn wood' frame and capture the photo of the bird... It just kind of states that despite the elements, life goes on...
ReplyDeleteBest we've gotten around here is a bit of wet snowy rain. It's nice to see it fall -- and I appreciate that it's not sticking & causing road troubles.
ReplyDeleteStill ... it's pretty to look at. Wish I could be holed in with you Mom. Beautiful bird photo.
I'm sorry to say I didn't take the bird photo. Wish I had.
ReplyDeleteSnow or cold, I am not sure what is worse. We have 35 BELOW wind chill today. Everything is closed down, but there is not a half inch of snow on the ground!
ReplyDeleteGood day to sit under a hooped quilt with a needle in my hand!
