It's Snowing!!

Look what I woke up to this morning. Snow! Now for some people in this country, snow is a normal part of winter, but here in south Mississippi it is not. The last time we had snow was in 2000 or 2001. Isn't it beautiful? I love living in the country where there are a lot of trees to catch the snow. Now, at 2:00 pm, it's starting to melt but the woods still look beautiful. {Sunday, we still had snow in the shade. I actually had to clean it off the windshield of my car to go to church.}




My nephew, Theron, had fun playing in the snow. He and his mom threw snowballs, made a snowman, and made snow angels. They played outside for several hours. Of course, he's only 4 years old and this was his first time in the snow. He loved it.






I also, finished stitching a flower for one of my exchange groups. It was a freebie pattern from My Aunt's Attic. The thread that I used was named Calypso. I'm going to make it into a scissor fob.
Today since I'm not leaving the house, I have several things I want to work on.
1. finish the fob
2. Stitch the border for the new round robin
3. Stitch on the red thread round robin
4. Crochet a backpack for Tucker. (Deigo's Backpack)
5. Stitch on the "Rainbow birds" for my mother.

I'll let you know what I finish this weekend on tomorrow or Monday.
Thanks for stopping by

I started this project on June 25th (late at night) and finished it June 27th. I stitched it on 28ct Jazlyn Solo Fabric from Silkweaver's FOTM club. I used DMC floss that the pattern called for except DMC3777 it was too close to DMC 221 (they almost blended instead of standing out). So I used DMC 920 instead. It turned out great. My mom loves the winter scene. I love the sheep. It was a very quick stitch. I think I'll make a needle book out of it or maybe a magnet.
