One More Snowman.....




Oooops....this little project ended up too large for a pillow.  It measures 15 x 21 inches.  Sometimes the creative process outgrows the original thought process!  Oh well, one can't sweat the small stuff.  I get to go this morning to pick up my winter quilt from my wonderful, talented quilter, and I will see if she can quickly quilt this little piece.  She spoils me, and I'm so glad she does.

Bruce's Dad came last night to share a bowl of chicken soup with us.....I made a rhubarb, berry pie to finish things off.  I so appreciate the help he generously offers me.......he has become an expert at stuffing patterns into the plastic bag for me.  He has done that for the last 3 years or so and has gotten quite proficient at his job.  I'm considering promoting him to the foreman of the stuffing department! :-)  He works very cheaply...for soup and pie and a hug.....and some leftovers to take home with him.   I am fortunate to have his help.


Tonight several of us meet at Elaine's Quilt Block.  We have a group that meets there, we share inspiration, friendship and a treat.   I hope I have many good things to share with you tomorrow.  We all love a good show and tell.
