I have also sewn a baby doll dress for a challenge on a sewing forum. It has been nice to hide away for a few days, but I am ready to be back to normal.

We all went to the farm where family, friends, and grandchildren spent several days drinking hot chocolate, sledding, eating ... and when we weren't too tired--watching movies. The cherry on top would have been to have had a couple of extra days with my sewing machine. Maybe next time.Gigihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05071728923868301610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8265572548221124374.post-69586668958946530592011-01-12T14:29:00.622-06:002011-01-12T14:29:00.622-06:00Good afternoon!

Once the employee newsletter had an article with suggesttions for what to do on a snow day. Snow day? Other people got snow days?

I NEED to spend the time cleaning closets, sewing, etc., but I KNOW all I would get done is eat gumbo and look at the snow.

Being without school aged children any longer, I love to sew on a snowy day. Today I am going to work on a jacket for me, while my batiste is washing. I'll be cutting out a bishop - from your pattern, of course, and get it ready for smocking.

We very rarely have that joy so if we did get snow I would go over to my daughter's house and sled down her hill with my grandchildren. Then, we would make a snowman. After being good and wet and cold, I would go home and eat a bowl of broccoli and cheese soup and maybe even clean house UGH!
