It was -18 degrees this morning, even colder before I got up if I can believe the weatherman. It is good sewing weather. I did have to go out to get groceries for my parents yesterday and with the sun shining and very little wind it was bearable. The streets were all coated with clean white snow (no ice melter yet) and it reminded me of my childhood with snow covered gravel roads.
I started working on this quilt with embroidered center squares. The coral and yellow fabrics are leftover from this quilt. I was going to do strips between these 15" nine patches but now I think I will just put them edge to edge which just makes a giant checkerboard.
I just had to include one more snow picture. This is my spirea bush which is usually quite airy looking. Now it is a solid snowball with a few delicate branches peeking out.
I think I will clean off a couple table tops and then sew some more today.
