Snow Again?

 It rained all day on Friday. It didn’t quite wash away all the snow from four weeks ago. Yes, there has been snow on the ground on Long Island for all that time. I have lived here all of my 65 years and don’t remember snow on the ground for that long ever. The weather prediction is for more snow on Sunday and Monday. Really?! Ugh. 

Of course, having Olympics on the TV from early morning to late night all day every day has helped me to deal with the decidedly depressing weather. It has also contributed to great progress on my crafts. 

The background of Having a Ball is almost 3/4 quilted. I have a nice rhythm going with it now. 

The second sock is well on its way to completion. The heel is done and I’m heading toward the toe. 

I looked in my stash and found this pretty bamboo sock yarn.

I can’t wait to start another pair. I want a different pattern. If anyone has a favorite, please share it with me. 

The I-Spy quilt sandwich is pinned and ready for me to begin machine quilting. 

I finished reading The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches.

I liked this book and would recommend it. I wouldn't say it was an exceptional book to read, but it was certainly enjoyable and the characters were interesting. I just started reading The Forest of Vanishing Stars by Kristin Harmel. I don't have an opinion of it as yet. 

I will be joining Frederique at the Quilting Patch on Saturday and Kathy for some Slow Sunday Stitching. I hope you take some time to relax with some tea, coffee or hot chocolate and pop on over to their sites to see what other bloggers are stitching.

Thanks for stopping by!
