Well, y'all Midwest people tin halt your snickering now. We got or thus serious snowfall in conclusion night. When I looked out this morning, this is what I saw. About 5 inches roughshod overnight.
It's been falling off together with on all morning. If y'all believe the forecasters, this is solely the beginning, together with we're inward for or thus serious snowfall this week. It isn't oft nosotros run across fifty-fifty this much, permit lonely what is predicted.
The kitties lead hold been out.
They ever greet the snowfall amongst a mixture of confusion together with curiosity.
Smitty thinks it's best viewed from his kitty pole.
Sadie was the to a greater extent than adventurous of the 2 this morning. She went out several times, coming inward together with chattering away amongst excitement each time. Eventually, she settled inward on my lap to assist me amongst my slow-stitching. See if y'all tin gauge what's happening inward the adjacent to photos.
As long every bit we're talking almost the Snow Globes stitchery, I stitched plenty of the base of operations yesterday to motion the hoop to the right.
Here's where I left it yesterday.
Like the Energizer Bunny, this morn I only kept going, together with going, together with going, until I had the whole base of operations stitched. It's fun when I tin add together the sparkly floss.
Now I've moved the hoop northward, together with the in conclusion of the in conclusion is encompassed. There isn't a whole lot left, together with thus this could easily endure finished tomorrow morning. If y'all hold back at the top of the prototype below, y'all tin run across a few stray Sadie furs. Her fur is actually bad almost sticking to the fabric. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 lint roller industrial plant well.
Oh yes, together with I stitched the adjacent fiddling inchy too. This 1 had a new-to-me stitch...the pistil stitch, which is the pinkish stitching to a higher house the flower. It's actually only a long stitch amongst a French knot at the end. It was a fiddling difficult keeping tension on the floss to larn a expert tight stitch together with knot. I finally figured out only to continue my pollex over the knot spell I pulled it tight. Also, those are double lazy daisies leaves.
Yesterday, I finished my Feb OMG, which was to stitch together the blocks for the Rainbow Jubilee quilt. It's a finished flimsy now.
When all was said together with done, I had this fiddling pile of trimmings. No, I volition non endure saving them for anything.
When the fourth dimension comes, I'll endure linking up to:
It was expert to larn the flimsy finished thus that Matthew could run across it when he came past times yesterday to drib off his van. There lead hold been no messages from him this morning, together with thus it seems prophylactic to assume that his 5:00 a.m. flying to Houston took off every bit scheduled. He'll wing into Houston together with thus on to Republic of Guatemala City where he volition endure until the halt of April. We'll fille him spell he's gone, but I'm glad he's out living his life together with choosing opportunity when he can.
This is the stance from my window every bit I'm writing this.
It looks similar the birds could role a handout, together with thus I'll in all probability adjust upward together with fill upward the aeroplane feeders when I complete here. I'd similar to travel out together with lead hold or thus pictures spell the snowfall is fresh. Mike only went out to chain upward the tractor together with turn our driveway.
As for the balance of the day, this volition endure my view. I'm getting gear upward to settle inward together with quilt the Hocuspocusville quilt.
It's fourth dimension every bit a kitty fort has come upward to an end.
I'm guessing at that spot volition endure Castilian coffees inward this mix today. It's expert to rest warm both within together with out, wouldn't y'all agree?
