We're all chickens here. The conditions exterior has been frightful. The kitties really, really, actually wanted to become exterior yesterday. Each fourth dimension I opened the door for them, they were hitting amongst a boom of mutual depression temperature air that discouraged them stepping exterior amongst fifty-fifty i paw. Snow is falling i time again this morning, together with Smitty is watching it amongst curiosity.
It was a practiced solar daytime to remain within together with sew. I finished off the ninth Tiny Tuesday block. The "peel" was supposed to hold out applique, simply mine is inset. It seemed similar a practiced chance to do the technique I learned from Dawn White a couplet of years ago.
This i is forthwith set. Here are the nine blocks I lead maintain thus far:
After that, I finished off the concluding 2 Chicken Buffet blocks. Here's "Chicken Cacciatore."
Here's "Chicken Italiano."
They've been thus much fun to make, I'm sort of distressing to lead maintain them all finished. The pieces are cutting for sewing this into a flimsy, simply it volition demand to hold off its plow inwards trouble behind iii other sets of finished blocks. Here are the 12 blocks all together now.
There is around beading to do on the Chicken Divan block inwards the upper right. I'll in all likelihood hold off until I lead maintain it quilted to add together those.
I saw 2 pictures of concluding night's blood-red sunset that were taken past times others. We were looking northward together with missed it. Nevertheless, I did acquire a shot of the 2 mountains amongst a pinkish cast inwards the sky. Looking at the conditions outside, I'd tell this debunks the whole "Red heaven at night, sailors' delight" idiom.
This morning's inchy was a picayune fleck hard. The i Meg Hawkey posted was a prissy star shaped flower, spell mine is sort of a bearded iris. I wasn't certain where to choose the needle inwards together with out for the v cast-on stitches. Oh well. It's practiced enough, I think. Just i to a greater extent than inchy to go, together with thus the 2 blank squares.
Mike is working from domicile i time again today. Roads are icy. I was supposed to become into town for a pedicure, simply I rescheduled that.
My friend Dorothy asked for the link to the Cheesy Potato Soup from yesterday, together with at that topographic point it is. It's a recipe from the Cooking Light Diet, together with it was pretty good. It would lead maintain been improve amongst bacon, but, yous know... the diet. After a calendar month of gluttony inwards February, we're getting serious near our diet again. We've been on this diet for near 300 years now, I think, simply our commitment waxes together with wanes. This week, it's all diet all the time.
As for the residue of the day, I don't actually know what I'll cease upward sewing, simply I'm real tempted to acquire going on sewing together the blocks for Tuxedo Tales.
They're adjacent on the listing to run upward into a flimsy. I don't know if I lead maintain the fabrics I'll need, thus it powerfulness lead maintain to hold out something else...maybe the Snow Globes...
I know I lead maintain the fabrics for those, together with thus they powerfulness acquire to cutting into line. It's difficult to tell what volition hap today, simply sewing volition hold out involved.
