Yesterday afternoon the sun was streaming in the kitchen windows and I had the urge to clean the kitchen floor. That is one of my least favorite jobs, but the sunshine made me do it! Then last night I looked at my 2 very dusty pincushions overflowing with needles that needed to be thrown away, a few bent pins in with the good ones, and an assortment of sewing machine needles that were gently used. The little pinwheel one has fabric from a dress I made for my daughter when she was around 10 years old. She is in her 40's now. It is about 4" square and has always been one of my favorites. The other is one of the felted wool ones that I purchased about 8 years ago. I emptied them and used scotch tape to pick up all of the dust and lint and then refilled them. It is amazing how little time it takes to do a job that I can procrastinate about for years.
I needed more light colored cobblestone blocks for my in progress project.
The light was perfect yesterday morning to get a close shot of the Christmas cactus flower.
Here is another shot. They are so delicate and beautiful.
The snow is gone and it got up to the mid 40's yesterday afternoon. I hear the storm is headed south. I hope it doesn't freeze too many flowering trees and other blooms.
