There is quite a sprinkling of snow here but I am pretending it's about 6 feet deep and as I'm not at work today it's a jolly good excuse to sew.
This half finished quilt top has been hanging around for ages now and I got inspired to add the second row today. There's another row of three blocks to add and then I can wash my hands of blanket stitch for ever!
I think it will measure about 5 feet square when it is finished.
So God, if you're listening, can we have another dump of the white stuff tonight so that I can continue tomorrow. Thanks.
I couldn't resist taking some photos by the canal at Brewood this morning after the school run, but I only had my phone with me as a camera - not bad really. It was so peaceful down there - I love the way the snow mutes the air.
lovely quilt. Snow, a good excuse to get things done that you wouldn't normally give yourself permission to do. Managed to get a google account, not worked out how to set up a blog yet. J
ReplyDeleteGreat photo - we're sweltering here, what a contrast - great progress on your quilt!
ReplyDeleteNothing better than a snow day...
ReplyDeletethat photo of the canal is superb!
ReplyDeleteHi Clare,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your cheery words, love your quilt, especially the surface stitching, it looks very tactile and , well, "stitchy" for the want of a better word!
