BRRRRR! And not a whole lot going on

I can’t even begin to tell you how cold it is! The weird thing is that on Tuesday it was 55 degrees and I wore my poncho to take Missy C to school! For those of you who follow the celcius standard that’s about -14. UGH!

Life here has been pretty “ho hum”…calendar sales for the Rocky Mountain Crazy Quilters have been brisk and I have a pile to get into the mail today. Like any small organization it’s always a challenge to get everything done!

Tomorrow is our meeting and I’m teaching hand applique. Which is funny (can’t you tell we’re a small group? because I’ve taken one applique class! – not sure I’m qualified to teach! 🙂 )

However, I thought I’d do a little heart project and folks can do regular applique or reverse – the regular for people who have never tried hand applique and reverse as a variation for more advanced people. The other benefit is that I don’t have to cut out 5000 fabric hearts tonight! I do need to make a couple of templates and take my freezer paper and go buy fabric and applique needles!

The kids are good, healthy and SLEPT THE WHOLE NIGHT last night. I know a couple of mothers with babies that think the “sleep through the night” thing is something you conqor and you’re done forever, but kids who are sick, or have nightmares, etc, etc still get up at night. We seem to have definate ups and downs in this area!
