Husband just shuttled down to Longwood medical area for his second shot. He had such a reaction to a recent shingles shot that he’s kind of expecting to be laid low for a day. We’ll see. Tylenol at the ready. My second is next weekend.
As you may know, it snowed here yesterday. This morning’s walk was cold, but mainly because we were underdressed. A chilly light rain falling on bare heads is no fun. Got my two and half miles in anyway.
As soon as K buzzed off, I spent a little time in my studio. It’s really been a while. I’m looking forward to hand-quilting this larger village quilt.
The happy accident of towers / woven strips finding each other is worth pursuing, I think. I’ll cut and weave into the yellow base near the buildings’ foundations and somehow resolve the areas where the white background ends too soon.
I get a kick out of seeing pics from your walks; SO “New England”! Reminds me of my early childhood! 🙂
LOVE those house quilts, Dee! <3
Thanks Jen. I love seeing Alabama shots from you because you’re so far ahead of us in season.
If only it would STAWP Raaaaaining. 🤦🌧️🌧️🌧️😅
Yeah wow you’ve been getting a lot! This is year three or four of drought conditions here, so no one was too upset about the precipitation— even tho it was snow.
Wow, the colors in these pics, especially the walk ones, is so bold…almost looks like you colored them yourself! How is everything white, but for the bold yellow house?! Super cool! Really love the weaving on the bottom house cloth, like how it is mostly the one print with others dancing in and out here & there.
Good luck with #2 shots you two.
I love the mosses and the flowering fruit trees.
Love the house quilt, which you are going to quilt – goodness the snow! DD is living in Boston but actually in Vermont – this weather is all coming some time later to us – Germany.
What do you mean “in Boston but actually in Vermont” ?
Oh your village quilt is absolutely AMAZING 🤩
just got our first shots! love the village.
So glad!!
Thank you. It’s amazing what I can find down in the piles.
love seeing your villages surfacing & wondering what that fabulous pink red flowering tree in the third photo?
I’m pretty sure it’s a weeping cherry tree.
I feel like I jinxed your weather the other morning. The village quilt is quite amazing. I have a crick in my neck tipping my head over to get the right view.
Yeah that was so funny, me asserting that it wasn’t snowing before I’d even opened the curtains
so glad you two are well on your way to being fully vaccinated … and love that last image (as noted in your IG post)
The village is really swell, colorful and a clear blue sky- refreshing.
Thanks, Hazel! Now if I can keep from ruining my thumbs while quilting it!
