This was taken about 2 p.m. yesterday when there was about 4" on the ground. The snow started around 10 a.m. and stopped around 8:30 at night. I measured 7" in my yard but I shoveled over 4" twice off the sidewalk.
The cacti bloom is fully opened now. I just love this color. There is one more bud that I thought was going to dry up but it looks a little larger today. Maybe I'll get one more bloom.....
I had 2 guys at my house early yesterday morning putting the expanding foam in 2 cracks in my basement walls. I have been meaning to fix them for a long time and decided this was a good time. One crack was there when we moved in 39 years ago and had been repaired at least once but the rain still leaked in if we had a downpour all day or 2 days of heavy rain. Now I have a 10 year guarantee of no leaks. After they left I ran a bunch of errands before the snow got too heavy. I chose some backings for a few quilts tops and then made these 2 little mug rugs. I couldn't decide if I should quilt the same way as the strip piecing or across it so I did one of each.
