It's the perfect weather to spend a little time quilting.
Since I am still sewing machineless, I have plenty of time to work on "Roses are Red, Borders are Blue".
I was hoping to get away this weekend, but after checking the internet weather sources, it appears that there are weather warnings in all directions.
So I guess it's two days of cleaning, cooking, reading & quilting. I am off now to finish reading the latest Elm Creek Quilts novel, 'The New Year's Quilt'. I must say that I am a bit disappointed in this one. Anybody else read it?
What's everyone else doing this weekend?
Sounds like I'm doing the same thing you are! Cooking-ah, maybe on Sunday. I want to try a few recipes I found in my new food magazines, one of which in non baked Bourbon balls. I still have some Christmas cookie ingredients I want to use up.
ReplyDeleteI want to try a small quilt and was thinking about the fabrics I have had gathered in a plastic shoebox for a number of years now. Maybe I'll get that out too!
Perfect weekend to stay inside..with windchill it's -37C here and not supposed to warm up anytime soon!!
ReplyDeleteI will read,bake and clean this weekend..also am working on a photo album which I'll try to finish.
Dianne,
ReplyDeleteI was thinking of making some valentine sugar cookies if I get really ambitious. DH loves frosted sugar cookies, but they are a lot of work. I hope you start your quilt!
Betty, Do you do the scrapbooking photo albums? I spent a couple of years doing that. It was great fun! What are you reading?
Cold here too, low is to be 10 tomorrow morning and lower on Sunday. I am working a a horse quilt for a twin bed, I have two rows left to put it together. I have a ham to bake. Might make a carrot cake, have a new recipe that makes only a 9 inch sq one. Tomorrow I will pick up the oak antique step back hutch I brought and bring it home and arrange all my pottery in it. It has 2 glass doors to show my pretties off!
ReplyDeleteHi Patti,
ReplyDeletea recipe for a 9-inch carrot cake sounds like a good one to have for only two people. Are you going to post the recipe on your blog?
I bet you will have a lot of fun playing with your pottery arrangement in your new oak cabinet.
It sounds like we are all doing about the same things this weekend!
Recipes are posted!
ReplyDeleteHey, Zoey, I hope you don't freeze to death! We are supposed to get some snow here, but not a lot. Yesterday I painted my bathroom, will do more on Monday. Sunday- church! And a nap!
ReplyDeleteHi Zoey,
ReplyDeleteLooks like a cozy place to cuddle during cold weather. We've got high winds and it's chilly here too.
Hope you had a wonderful weekend :)

Cold here too! But I was able to get out to the fabric store yesterday. I saw the orange dot and turquoise embroidered fabric in your last post on the tables.
ReplyDeleteI got mostly shirt fabric for spring. Can you believe the new fabric is already picked over??

I just got the latest Elm Crek book from the library. Now I'm wondering if I'll be disappointed too. I'll let you know.
