you know heat rises so we generally only have to turn heat on IF/when it is bitter
cold AND the wind is blowing. No wind no heat needed.
Not to mention since I am post menopausal I tend to run a bit (a LOT) hotter than
most "normal" people and my husband complains that I try to freeze him to death
most of the time.
I just tell him to stop wearing shorts in the winter or when it is cold.

Ok JuneBillie, my mind went south a little here. I looked at your icon then at the phrase about the owls and the way that cat is peaking around the corner there, we I just had to chuckle a bit.

The owls and the "simple" turquoise pieces are all gorgeous. Love all the work so far.
Melissa and I will post our pictures tomorrow. Now I have both my pincushions finished. I'm so excited to see if my partners will like them.

If you're talking about my fabric, I really can't tell you. Only had about a FQ of it so I could have gotten it in the FQ swaps. Sorry. I've got to get some ideas rolling around for pin cushions, that's trouble for me, found the crushed walnut shells and only in a 20lb bag I think it was, but $26.00 later that's a lot of pin cushions. Better get to roaming the internet. Haven't heard from my other partner but she has received a set also, hope she liked them.
Love the pincushion and needle book. That fabric is beautiful where was it found if I may ask??
