Snow Day ~ Sew Day

Look at these gorgeous fabrics!

These fabrics make my heart happy.

I first posted these fabrics way back in November Here.

These beautiful fabrics are 

Wild Forgotten by Bonnie Christine for AGF

I bought these fabrics  Here @ Fat Quarter Shop.

Then they were laid aside for the Thanksgiving and Christmas season

and my sewing machine was covered.

Today my machine is uncovered and ready for my first sewing day in 2022.

It is a snow day here in my quilty corner of the northeast.

Mr Scrapatch made the wise decision to stay home from work and has been 

spending the day outside trying to move the white stuff from our steps and walkways.  Our street has not been plowed yet.

I am staying in and sewing, crocheting and making bread.

I have found a wonderfully easy bread recipe and method

that became a holiday favorite.

I will be posting the recipe and more photos soon.

May you and yours have a safe and happy day!

I Like Thursday # 77 ~ Snow and Sew

 

Snowing ... snowing ... snowing.

We had about a foot when I woke up this morning 

and it will continue to snow until mid afternoon.

It is also very windy and cold.

It was an effort to even open out back door.

Nutmeg had to investigate then small patch of snow that got caught inside the door.

Kitty love to sit in the sun in this door and watch the birds and the critters.

No sun today and the backyard wildlife is sheltering in the evergreen trees and bushes.

 I will be staying inside and sewing, with occasional forays into the snow to shovel and sweep.

Mr. Scrapatch has decided he cannot get to work today which I think is a good thing.  

He will probably on snow removal duty most of the day and into the night. 

Today there is enough snow, he had to snow blow the back porch.

We have a rechargeable battery powered snow blower

that is lightweight and compact enough to do so.

Mr. Scrapatch reports we have 15-18" of the white stuff.

It will be a White Christmas this year!

I made a nice big pot of beef stew to warm and nourish us today.

I saw this and it seems a good theme for the day.

Between snow and sew breaks I will be visiting my friends@
