Off to a Good Start!
This just may add up to the most significant snow we've had since moving to Missouri. Bring it on, I say! Of course, school has been canceled and that means I must bake cookies -- love the cozy cookie smell on cold snowy days. Sledding for the boys this afternoon while I sit and (no surprise) quilt.
What you see is about 1/20th of the surface of my current project. I'm just starting to hand quilt this huge (108x112 -- king-sized) quilt made of civil war reproduction fabrics. I spent all of last year piecing it and will probably spend all of this year quilting it.

I retired as a technical writer years ago. Since then I've spent my time reading, writing, rabble-rousing and raising my two orphaned grandsons. Because they are now grown,I still spend time reading, writing, quilting, and in advocacy for many causes. Don't get me started on politics. My day-to-day life is fairly quiet, but my fantasy life is soaring, and I take mental excursions almost as good as the real thing.
