Starting over!!!!

Ode to Mickey D
My latest finished piece.   The center block was made with hand dyed fabric from Mickey Depre.   That block has been sitting around here and I decided to start adding to it.   Much of the applique is inspired by her Garden Whimsy book.   Hand pieced and mostly hand quilted.

Saturday, January 26 was the Winter Warrior Snowman 1/2 Marathon.   The hardest half I've done.   But I got this little guy for being first in my age group!!!    Happy me.....

OK ....backtrack to the weekend after Christmas.   Ashley and kids came for "our" Christmas.   We got in a couple hours of sledding at the local park.   Great fun!!!

One of my gifts was this cutting board.........hanging in my kitchen now!!!    Makes me happy!!!

We had a good short visit - made gingerbread boys and girls, peppermint bark, and enjoyed seeing each other.  

Of course, the greats came for dinner.  

I hoped to start this blog sooner, but blogger was not allowing pics from ones' own computer.....and now it is.   We'll see how long that lasts.......and I'll try to post occasionally.
