Snowy Saturday and Sunday

We got the expected 2 inches of snow on Saturday, plus 6 more unexpected ones along with temperatures that hovered in the teens for most of the time.  It turned a “work-on-the-garden” weekend into a “cozy-hunker-down-inside” weekend and we made the most of it.

I made the “Sunday Dinner Hostess Apron” from Weekend Sewing.  Its made from a Moda cotton I had in my stash as the main piece and then I used an old dress shirt of David’s that had a hole in it for the facing. It’s a nice fast project and I really needed an apron. Maybe it’ll cut down on the amount of flour and butter that end up on my clothes.

David took the kids and the puppies out for several romps in the snow.

I started a new knitting project.  I love the start of a project, such possibilities.  I’m using a baby alpaca yarn and its really soft and lovely.  Its been hard to put down!

And Bernie worked on being cute the whole weekend and succeeded admirably.
