Yep, in the way that Storm Stella whipped through our otherwise boring winter and made the beautiful picture that is my new background.<br />

It has also made the front of our house a target for the buzzing noise of snowmobiles. They go by quickly, usually in groups of two, so I have been able to snap a couple of pictures as they have zoomed by. <br />

With these I am using stash. I had purchased the fabric back in 2006 and bought a lot of it (mostly 1+ yard segements) I don't remember why, but I really liked it back then. I still like it, but its time for it to move out in the form of a quilt. Therefore, it was my excuse to start something new.<br />
<br />
And found an old UFO from either 2004 or 2006. My mom and I went to a quilt conference and I started it at that time (back in the days before stash). I screwed up my count on blocks (and didn't cut my diamonds correctly). Thus could not get a layout I liked, so I just put it into a box. <br />

It waited for me and the other day I was overcome with the need to just get it finished. And I fussed and fussed over the layout, finally I gave in and made a block out of incorrectly cut scraps. I still have to fuss with the border, but I will have a finished quilt I will love. <br />
<br />
And it will leave my home, hopefully as my first completed quilt for <a href="http://confessionsofafabricaddict.blogspot.com/p/hands2help_11.html" target="_blank">Hands2Help</a>. Yep, sucked into this one too. I have some quilting projects to complete, but life is not allowing me the time and creative energy to finish them so I will give my creative energy where I can.<br />

<span style="color: #0d0d0d;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">As with most of my quilts there is no pattern or I adapt the pattern. I designed this to work with color and I wanted the focus to be on the "blues". I used part of a jelly roll for the blocks and around 2/3 of a yard of brown to do the sashings and borders on the quilt. I also used different width sashings from top to bottom and left to right. </span></span></span><br />

The entire quilt is free motion quilted on my Juki machine.<br />
<br />
I started to use tape for the straight lines and my walking foot does not work properly, so I free motion my quilts. I had seen examples of long arm quilters using a ruler for straight lines, and knew they had taught themselves to use the ruler, so why can't I do that. It takes a little focus to hold the ruler and guide the quilt, but once I got started it was super easy. I love the results.<br />

Yesterday was NUTS as far was work was concerned, the number of people with broken water lines was amazing, but we persevered and got the work done. Now on to today and more normal of a schedule.

All is well here as far as the weather goes. We are in the "Northtowns" so the snow we got was recycled over two or three times by now. My biggest concern was the river that goes in front of our house had an ice jam on it and was potentially going to cause flooding. We will know the rest of the story as time continues.<br />
<br />
Have a GREAT day!<br />

We had a wonderful time over Christmas with over 13 people staying in the house at one time and one day of 16 people here. I loved having my family here, one brother and sister were not able to come. I also loved having them leave. Yes, I cried, but I also rejoiced in the blissfully quiet house I was left with. I have been feeling under the weather and have resorted to taking Alka-Seltzer to help clear up this lovely cold which was left from some of the guests.<br />
<br />
I have become a DragonVale fanatic (thanks to my niece) I am now madly breeding dragons trying to get the magical jeweled dragons - still no luck. Its still a fun challenge.<br />
<br />
I am working on my quilt for the Kona Blog Hop (started by my going to <a href="http://www.sewwequilt.com/">Sew We Quilt</a> and seeing the information - I was the last one in). I am loving it - it is different and I will be writing up a pattern for it.<br />
<br />
Here are a few pictures of some things I completed in the past several weeks (THANKS mom! - she did all of the binding). I still have a lot of items to show.<br />
<br />
This is Christmas presents for the ladies at the office - Little mug rugs.<br />

I have been a member of <a href="http://www.swap-bot.com/">Swap-Bot</a> for the last several months and we have been exchanging Crazy 9 Patch blocks. I had to get a quilt finished quickly for a new grand-nephew of mine so I used some of the blocks from the exchange and made some more with blue in them. He was born in Germany at just over 2 lbs. He is back in the states and is over 7 lbs now. So here is Oliver's quilt!<br />

I start as a newborn in the world of blogging. I have spent years reading blogs, but never being the manager of a blog. Right now my blog looks ugly, but as with quilts and other things we learn in life you have to take a step at a time and learn the basics and then grow on the basics. Please leave me your positive feedback and bites of encouragement.<br />
<br />
Have a great day! Its the only way to enjoy the day.<br />
