Slacker.....

So I am finally quilting the zig-zag quilt!! I just cannot get motivated to finish it! I want to finish quilting it so I can bring the quilt to work after starting the binding. We will see! Maybe by next week I will be able to do that! Yeah... that is what I said last week!! Tee-hee!

We will see, I am being a slacker lately and just want to lay around and do nothing... of course nothing includes a 10 month old daughter that is into everything! So nothing is a very busy day in my house! I will post pics of the zig-zag quilt this week... I am upset that some of my lines were off and the edges are not all exact... but I guess I have to give myself some credit being that this is the first quilt that I have done all by myself from start to finish! I have to stop being so hard on myself!

Have a great night!!!

Snow, snow and more snow!!

With all the snow that is happening outside... I thought I would share some images of what it is like out there! I shoveled out the sidewalk and next to my car... now mind you my sidewalk can't be more then 20 feet long... it took me and my husband an hour to get my car out.... thank goodness my husband has a plow that did most of the work.... It is crazy out there!

This is the door to my deck.... clearly up to my thighs in height!



This is the front door snowed in.....

BEFORE......

AND AFTER!!! (Note the snow bank to the right... yeah its as tall as me and I am 5ft 7in. Craziness!!)

The zig zag quilt top is almost done! I will post a picture when its completed! I just have to get my walking foot for my sewing machine and I can get it quilted!
ENJOY THE SNOW!!!
