Snow and Sew

I've been doing a little Christmas sewing...while avoiding other Christmas sewing.
(Self-inflicted craft ADD, I know.)


...and, dang it, one of my potholders is not like the others.


It's very tempting to keep these guys, since they match my
 new(ish...stolen from my sister this summer) recipe box.


What's more, they even match my house.
(And now that I look at this picture, I must say that our frequent fireplace use is beginning to show on the chimney. One more thing to do this Spring.)


...and a little more sewing.


You may have noticed the white stuff on my house.
Yes, we got a whopping couple of inches of snow - just enough to close the schools and cause a 4-day weekend. Lovely. :)
The kids were thrilled.


Cozy finally got to try out her new snowboots (which she now insists on wearing to preschool, even though the snow is long gone.


...but then she noticed it was "sticky" and made her hands cold.


Other, crazier children didn't mind...or feel that they needed gloves...or jackets.



As I said...crazy.
Now I'd best go finish a thing or two...before I start something else.

  2. I can see why Cozy is so taken with her new boots. They look pretty fancy.
