Some more stitching going on



I woke up to this this morning. We had about 6 inches on the ground when we went out to remove it. More has snowed and it has turned to ice underneath. It is about done snowing now, but the wind is still blowing. Suppose to get to 78 degrees overnight.  

While I was drinking coffee and waiting for daybreak I finished pressing the denim squares and then I stitched the 4-patches to the denim squares in rows for the blocks. Now I need to press them


The wind was raw while I was out helping so I made my favorite bar cookies. The oven was on and it smelled really good cooking. I take a chocolate chip cookie recipe and press it into a 9 X 13 pan and bake at 375 degrees for about 23 minutes. Nice and soft, but do they ever taste good. Everybody likes them. So I am back in here trying to decide what supper will be. I might eat leftovers ans sausage and eggs for my husband. Chris

I love the look of new fallen snow. I am so happy I no longer live in an area where I have to shovel it. Where I live in AZ, we get an occasional snow and I love it but I'm also very happy that it melts usually within a day...
You're blocks are coming along nicely and it's nice that you're able to use those scraps up in something that will give some warmth and comfort to someone..
BTW - have a Happy Thanksgiving...
