Cold weather and a few more needle books.

Brrrrrrrrr.  Not used to this cold weather that came on so fast.  The cold weather says Christmas is getting closer. Even had a few snowflakes last night. So I made some hot tea and snuggled into my warm confy chair in my favorite pajamas and stitched while I listened to the wind outside.  (All day)



I worked my way through my stash of fabric pieces.



And through my stash of lace.





Little bits of this and little bits of that. And lots of felt.







As you can see - it was a pretty productive day.

Thanks for dropping by.
Smiles to you.

Green lace needle book and supper at Christine's

I got the needle book done.  Buttonhole stitch flowers, and made herringbone stitch leaves.


I did buttonhole stitch around the border. And I put 4 pages inside for pins and needles.

My friend Christine came over and we did a little sewing, then went to her house for supper. Her husband grilled some steaks and she made some baked potatoes to go with them. Yummy!

We looked at lots of pictures of crazy quilts on pinterest and got lots of inspiration and lots of ideas. It was a real nice way to spend an evening. Then it was home again, a cup of hot tea while writing my blog, and now I will say "Good Night" to all.

Thank you for dropping by.
Smiles to you.
