    Poor Bella, at least she has heat. It's a cold one again tonight. I spent the day sitting in bed with the kitty, Zoey. it was to cold to do anything, and couldn't get the heat to go any higher. It's on full time too. so we watched tv together, and spent quality time together. Tomorrow, I start on this years Christmas projects.

    That is a great idea, starting Christmas projects now. I made a lot of gifts and waited until the last minute and then had to hurry. I don't even have a Christmas tablerunner that I made. It was so cold yesterday that it was a good thing I didn't have to go out. This morning it's 10 so that means a 20 degree warm up from yesterday morning. Today there was no school because they couldn't get the buses started. At least this weekend it's warming up to almost 50. Everyone take care

    I seen that design somewhere, and it's cute. It would be something for next Christmas to make a quilty person a matching pincushion set of the hair brush, a mirror, and comb, all on a pretty mat. It's fun just imagining things.

    I also want to start much earlier making things for Christmas for family etc. Quilts for beds, laps, table runners, potholders, totes, and things we either know they would like or something anyone can use any time.

    Oh I also love those cute chicken pincushions, and even though they may have been around awhile, it would be fun sometime if we had like a chicken only pincushion swap where we all see all the different chicken pincushion styles. It could be made by the simple usual pattern, but bigger, plain, or highly decorated, etc. It would be fun. That way once in awhile not only seasonal themes, but even specific item themes. Just a wandering thought.

    JuneBillie, I think that would be fun too. I can see putting earrings necklaces purse & high heels on one with a big floppy hat. LOL
