Dwina, you should definitely make that snowman into a mini quilt! He is sooooo adorable! I love him. I may have to steal your idea -- put that on my very-long to-do list! (I'm really glad you resisted keeping him!)

CT that is a great package you got from Dwina. I just love snowmen. A clever idea for the snowflake pincushion. And of course the chocolates. I hope that you didn't get too much snow. And another storm on Monday. I just got a dusting overnight but the snow should be starting this afternoon. So far they said 1-3 or 3-6 depending on where it hits. I'm more in the 3-6 range. Let's see what the groundhog thinks.
Everyone have a great day. If you have snow keep warm.

The sun is shining this morning, and it feels so good. I can't be in direct sun light very long, but I sure love seeing it shining. We have only had a dusting of snow, but no real accumulation yet. By now we usually always had a few inches, but I am not complaining. lol.. The dusting of snow was pretty.

Have a great day everyone!

Back from cruise but won't be home for another week. Should have a Pc/nC waiting for me but if my partner wants to post and show what she sent, that's fine with me. Had a great time but caught a terrible cold so not feeling to great.

I posted sign-ups for the February swap.

PLEASE NOTE THAT I ADDED A COUPLE EXTRA THINGS IN THE LIST OF INFORMATION...favorite candy, least favorite candy and favorite beverage. This should help if someone wants to add a little something extra in their package.
ALSO, from now you are going to have a choice of either a pincushion or a needlecase or a set (1 of each) for one person. Please specify what you want to make in the PM you send me. I hope this satisfies everyone. If not, please let me know.

There was no sun here today. It wasn't snowing when I left but 25 miles away it went down to 23 degrees and was snowing so I came back home and it was back up to 29 and not much snow. I'm sure more is coming. I did start my really mini hexies. These are half inch and a little bigger than a penny. They sure make up fast but really are small.

I'm in for one set this month. I'll PM you later

Wow, Pat, those are really small. I'll stick with the 3/4" ones for now.

Wow, Karen, you are quite the trooper. Just remember the saying, you can't please all of the people all of the time... :D

Pat, such teenie tiny hexies. What size are those again?

Each side measures 1/2". I didn't measure it going across the middle but they are almost the size of a penny. They are really cute.

Do you make your own paper patterns for those? I like tiny, so I might have to give that a try.
