Snow snow and more snow

Hello again.

I thought you might like to see some views - you may notice a little snow. It just hasn't shifted at all in the last week and it's snowing again.

And here are the poor duck and geese on the frozen lake.

Luckily they seem to have a little bit of water to have a swim in.

And, of course, we had to feed them - here is DH trying to make sure they all had a bit (didn't really work - but we did try).

Hope you're all able to get out and about.

I think I'll curl up now with some hand quilting.

How fun to feed the ducks! We have some Canadian Geese that I see out the window at work everyday. I can't imagine what they're eating -- or even how they're surviving in this cold -- don't they know they're supposed to fly south???

Dennis...

...well unfortunately Dennis died last month. Although we were very upset at the time we realise he had a very happy long life (18 years) and he spent his last day in the garden sunning himself . Everyone who came to the house met him - whether they wanted to or not; he was very friendly . So here are a last few photos of him looking like the fat happy orange cat that he was...

Hi - you can now find me at: sarahtextileart.blogspot.com

At long last ......

At long last it's finished. My first large (96 x 78 inches) quilt. I'm really pleased with the pieced binding. It took a while to finish off - but I really like it. I've still got a bit of tidying up and I need to add a label - but the hard slog is finished. So I feel a bit lost now without a huge quilt to sit and stitch when I fancy. You can see from below I've already got the fabric for my next project from Strawberry Fayre. And yet again it was great service - really fast. I've washed the fabric and now it needs a good press. I also need to make sure I think about how the cut the fabric so I don't end up with lots of bits. The larger pieces I'll piece to make the back.
