Busy WeekS

So much for my resolution this year to blog more than once a week...blew it this week! But I do have lots to show for staying away from the computer!!

star whack and stack blocks

Last Saturday I attend a workshop at guild on whack and stack and yesterday was the second part of the workshop. I had my blocks sewn together and made into a top. So yesterday I tried my hand at whack and stack with stars instead of pinwheels. I think I like the stars more. So today I am hoping to sandwich the quilt and get a head start on the quilting. I would like to see it done for Tuesday so I can take it to another guild and it will be recorded as my first finish of 2015!!



It is very mild here today with fine snow and at time almost rain falling. I cleared the driveway of snow that fell yesterday and decided since it was mild I would take down the outdoor Christmas decorations. With all that done, I treated myself to a large mug of hot chocolate and it just isn't right without marshmallows!!
So sitting here writing my blog and linking up with Kathy for slow stitching Sunday and enjoying my mug!!She asked us to include a picture of our hand doing the work. I gotta say that is no easy task when you are right handed and only have a camera with the button on the right!!





I am a sucker for sunsets and pretty coloured skies! Yesterday morning I caught this. It really doesn't do it justice but I was lucky I got the pic at all...10 minutes later the sky was grey/blue!
