There's NO Business like SNOW Business

Happy Tuesday.  I don't know what to say......Still....or Again??  Here was the scene yesterday.  We got an additional 9 inches.

We've been busy keeping our bird friends fed.  I love this little finch hiding from the snow and wind in the window feeder.

 I also really love this little House Wren.    How cute and fluffy is he?

Yesterday I got out my modern nine patches from the swap and put them up on the design wall.  Still love this setting.

As a special challenge to myself, I organized the typeface vertically and horizontally instead of going every which way.

Easy you may think, but there are actually 4 different half square triangle blocks.

spin them, spin them, spin them....you need the right one to make it work.

New Sewing Gadget:

For Christmas I got this neat tiny light for my sewing machine.  I had an electrical short years ago and the bulbs on my machine don't work.

Here it is with the machine on-

Now with my "mighty light" left of my needle-

Now with my new super tiny SewLite LED lights-

They have several different models.  They are pricey but work great!!  Here is a link.

I decided it was high time to take down the snowy Dicken's Village today.  The snow scene is just not as "cute" as it was in December.

This is the ugly down side to all that mood lighting....what a nightmare.

If only all of life's little challenges could be solved with zip locks and a rubber tote.

My villagers look funny all huddled waiting for their boxes.

I've restocked the large fan stencils in my Etsy store.  I've been overwhelmed by how many people have ordered them.  Thank You.

See you next time!
