After three days of sewing scraps, I managed to use 3lbs 8oz of fabric.

At that rate it will take me over 100 days to piece together all 425+ yards of scraps.

Maeve enjoyed the snow this morning.  Yesterday she was excited at the possibility of a snow day from school but then quickly changed her mind when she realized that would mean yet another Saturday spent at school (we don’t have snow days built in and we’re year round so there is no spring break to use up so we’re left with Saturday school).

A lot of those fabrics are the back.  Two of them are gifts.  Phew.

Snowstorm Fail

It tried really hard.  Really, really hard.

School was let out early yesterday in anticipation of The Blizzard of ‘09.  This was Liam on the way to the bus stop yesterday.  More precipitation was coming out of his eyes than out of the clouds.

He was slightly happier at his Christmas show at school.  He looks like he’s about to anchor the 6 o’clock news.

And a little bit of quilting yumminess.

Have a happy Saturday!

Mindless Sewing

For the first time since March — maybe April? sometime this spring — I sat down and just sewed something this weekend.  No deadlines.  No to-do lists.  I just sewed.  It was fabulous.

Sean really wants to steal one of these for his study.  If the heist fails then the shop will have some new additions soon.  If he succeeds then he’ll be warm and toasty this winter.

Other fabulous things this week? Catching up on my SC2 blocks, more mindless sewing, cleaning the house (nah, that sounds way too boring), and enjoying fall.
