Just Getting Caught Up

Today was a day I sewed. I finally finished some projects. I will show you pictures of those in a minute. Do you know that when we have a bad storm, as it moves across the US our bad storms turn into killer storms as they travel across the deserts. My Dad when he lived in Oklahoma always watched our weather to see what kind they would be having in a day or so.
This last storm was a big storm. Today I took pictures from my front yard with my little camera of all of the snow.
We don't have that much snow very often so all day I would just stare at it.

The mountains are just covered in snow right down to the foot hills. I bet by next weekend it will be all gone.
When the tax lady said we over built for the neighborhood. I asked why she would say that and she said because we didn't have a view. I am so glad she didn't come on the day when you can see the mountains, she would have us paying lots more taxes I bet.

This is a little pattern from Pineberry Lane. I have liked it for so long, but I am getting to that point where I have so many patterns and with it being spring not enough time. This should have taken just a few hours, it took me two weeks. I am not a fast stitcher.

 I finished the Word Play for April. See the word empty tomb? That isn't what it supposed to say.
On the pattern it says Easter eggs. I got that stitched and the more I sewed it the more I didn't like it.
So I took it out and for a week I tried to do empty tomb. I didn't have a pattern for that and tried to do it out of my head. I don't do good with things just out of my head.  But I got it on there finally.
I wanted to have it done before Easter but I just missed it by a week. I have May and I need to start it, but May will be my 8th one I have done. I am tired of them. I will finish them because you know I had one of those Mom's that no matter what I started she made me finish. Well, it became part of my personality and I feel so guilty that it is easier to just keep at something until it is done.

Here is my current rug project. This has been fun, as I have dyed all of the wool for this one. I really love the colors. I thought I would finish it today but ended up getting side tracked. I wanted to make pin cushions.
Don't ask me why it was just something I wanted to do today just so I would work with crushed walnut shells.

I had some quilt squares and I just thought it might be fun to make the pin cushions out of them. It was, I want to make the strawberries with the emery sand next. I think that will be fun. I had to stop as it was time to feed the troops. I never got back to it. It was too nice a day to be in the house.

I just had to show you a close up of that very lovely bunny. Brenda Gervais did a wonderful job on this one.
The little wagon is supposed to have the word Seeds written on it. I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to do it. I am still trying to get some kind of sewing mojo back. I never had much but I am learning.

Thanks for stopping by this evening. I hope you are all safe. I have been praying today for safety for you all.

Have a blessed Monday,
