Major snow storm on Monday, freezing rain and ice pellets on Tuesday, more rain on Wednesday, followed by, at long last, on this very first day of spring, a little bit of sunshine! So, I'm cautiously hoping that more spring-like weather will follow... soon...
This was the view from the upstairs window early on Wednesday morning:
Yuck.
Storm days have their value, though. On Monday evening, I finally finished the quilting of DX's One Hundred Good Wishes Quilt. Now, I just need to cut a binding and sew it on. That should take a couple of weeks to get at!
Doesn't DX look excited!?!
I think he was a little bored by the "cocooning" that the weather forced us to do.
Over the last couple of weeks, I also made some progress towards finishing a sweater I started to knit for my niece about 2 years ago. Of course, it won't fit the niece for whom it was intended- but luckily I have another one, and she is just about the right size to fit into the sweater!! Here it is, half-sewn together, looking something like a fuzzy pink animal.
I'm afraid I won't get much sewing or knitting done this week. I have a presentation to give at the end of the week, so that will keep me occupied. On the bright side, I'll be anxiously watching the mail this week for my fat quarters of black & white fabric to arrive. The mailing deadline was Saturday, so let the squares arrive. I just *love* swaps!!

I like the pic of DX sleeping, I put one of Ben on my blog to match.
Hope you and your family have a great Easter.
COngrats on the BJB - What an inspiration you are!! Can't wait to see it finished and all stretched out.
Happy Easter! We have quite a bit of snow here too.
