snow day

It snowed again last night. We haven’t had any huge snowstorms this year, but we have had plenty of snowy days.

This chickadee found the one feeder with seeds not covered in snow.

Riley and I went out to investigate the back yard and see who had paid an overnight visit. Riley can tell by her nose, but I need the snow to see who’s been around.

I think these are bunny tracks. * sigh *  I hope to NOT have a repeat of last year’s adventures.   backyard nature

I got sidetracked with plans for the spring.

And Riley had to wait for me to catch up.

Then it was time for breakfast.

the double bind

Have you met Riley? She’s 112 pounds of hairy love. And I do mean hairy.

I’ve made a bunch of scrap quilts to try to keep the furniture clean.  I pull them up and wash them: so much so that they are now frayed along the edges.

I sewed a second binding to this ragged quilt and loved the result. Not only did I clean up the ragged edge, but I added a second layer of fun to the binding. Super cute. It makes me want to have a double bind on all of my quilts.
