Brrrrrr it's cold out there.....

 
 
....and there is snow in the mountains, enough for some of the ski resorts to open.  I'm so happy to be inside where it is warm and cozy. Last evening, I completed the last of the applique on my new design.....Winter Wonderland.  Today I will sew it together and off to the quilter it will go.
 
 
 
There is a little bit of wool used,.......the 2 snowflakes, all of the berries, and the arms, nose and snowman features.  Otherwise I have used homespuns and a few printed cottons.  All of my backgrounds are Diamond Textiles.  The size is approximately 48X64 inches.

 
My goodness....the a in stitches on backwards in wonderland......it just occurred to me! :-)  Still have time to correct that.

 
And here is my sweet baby Wyatt.  He is so bright eyed, and I can tell he is growing.  A week from today we plan on being on our way to Ohio.  Ben and I look forward to cooking Thanksgiving dinner together.  We have memories of cooking together in the past, so we are looking forward to sharing the kitchen once again.
