Home

 It was a history making, tumultuous, crazy time this week in the US government.  But at home, all is quiet and cozy.  

David got me a lightbox for Christmas, which makes transferring an embroidery pattern so much easier and more pleasant.  My first project using the new lightbox was a little winter pillow with all sorts of warm winter coziness.

I've also been working on a quilted wall hanging.  I love the piecing, but the actual quilting is another story altogether.  I may try taking the next project to a long arm quilter for the finishing work.

These two bring a lot of joy and snuggles, which makes up any frustration they might cause.  Annie choosing the middle spot on the sofa is a new thing...she usually prefers to be curled up at the end.

David snapped this picture of our house while he was headed out to pick up pizza.  There wasn't much snow, just enough to make for a nice picture.  I love the candles in the windows and considered leaving them up through the winter.  

And one last little at-home happy...a new calendar with a different quilt for each month.  It came with a little booklet of the quilt patterns.
