Book Club Stitchettes #2 in the shop!

We’ve got the patterns for the second set of Book Club stitchettes up in the shop today. So the plan — there’s always a plan — is to make 9 designs in all and do sew them altogether in a cool quilt for the kids. I’ve done 2 sets and was thinking we’d do this, if you’ve bought both sets, the third will be free. I’ll also be writing up the directions for the quilt and have those available in the freebies section for anyone interested. I think it’s going to be really cute. I have two quilt ideas that I really want to get made up while we’re snowed in. Oscar’s on board with the hibernation mentality. Now if I can just get Phoebe to calm down and play quietly I’ll be good to go! These run-around kids don’t do so well in the Winter, do they?

And this week’s super lazy blogger could google it but is just asking friends question is.. what’s the coolest biggest Blythe community? I feel like playing Blythe again.

Blizzard 2011!!!

Okay! One of these overhyped weather events finally paid off. The blizzzzzard of 201111111 did it's job and dumped a mountain of snow all over us. The kids are in heaven! And I'd have really enjoyed our cozy shut-in snow day yesterday if it wasn't for the 5 hours of shoveling we did yesterday. Today we have another snow day to contemplate nature but of course it's -10000000 degrees so no playing in the snow. 

They played it up yesterday though

photo project

I'm working on covering the hall wall with snapshots. I think it's going to be super fun when it's done. I'm having all sorts of old photos printed up at snapfish. Love getting packets of photos in the mail. I'll have to share some of them soon.
