Snow Week Quilt – WIP Wednesday

What does a person do when they have a snow day? If that person is me, they sew. And if you get another snow day, they keep sewing. And then it looks like the snow and ice are there to stay until the rain comes to wash it all away and we ended up [...]

First WIP Wednesday of 2012

The break from school (for the kids) and classes and work (for me) and daycare (for JW) was awesome. I loved just being home. I told my friends I loved being able to take a shower and just put on clean pjs again. I spent most of our vacation in pjs. I look forward [...]

Monday was spent cleaning up and getting ready for Halloween, [...]

First W.I.P. Wednesday
