Yesterday we were enjoying 60 degree weather and a light jacket.
Surprise, surprise. There was about 4 to 5 inches when I took this picture.
It was so beautiful and quiet and reminded me of a Christmas card scene where a horse drawn sleigh is coming down the drive.

Fabric Used - 1/2 yd for binding
Fabric Added YTD - 49.7
Fabric Used YTD - 17.5
Net for 2013 - 32.2 in the red

I'll leave you with another shot of our beautiful snow -- this time from the back porch. It's about 8 or 9 inches here, (I'm guessing). Heard that we got 12 - 14 inches in our area.
Oh wow!!! We never got a decent snow here in Nashville this year. A few light dustings that were gone by noon :( Thanks for sharing your winter wonderland with us!!!
ReplyDeleteReally, the snow is beautiful. We don't get that in So. Louisiana. But I can live vicariously though y'all and not have to shovel it!
ReplyDeleteYour QOV is really pretty. I love those colors together!
Pretty, but I want spring!
ReplyDeleteI am envious of all of that snow. When spring does get around to making an appearance for y'all, it'll be beautiful with all of that moisture and hand stitching binding is the perfect way to spend a snowy day. What a lovely pattern on that quilt! It is sure to be a comfort to whomever is lucky enough to receive it!
ReplyDeleteFinally! A decent snow. I've been waiting all year for this. Fourteen inches and it's half gone the next day. Not fair, but I enjoyed it while it was here and spent the day watching it from my sewing room. Your yard is the perfect setting for a snowy day. Just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWonderful pictures--can you tell me the technique? No snow here. cold. dry. We are going to warm up for a few days--will hit 50F but then cooling again. I remember last year at this time I had the central air on.
ReplyDeleteYou said you were wanting to play in the dirt--the snow must have cured that itch for bit. I love all the batiks you're bought--you're right, its hard to find good batik backgrounds.
What a beautiful snow! I am not jealous, though!
