The week has gone by and it has been a nice week here. I am almost over my cold...which is soooooo nice.

We have been walking in the woods everyday; which hubby loves, and I get used to.lol.....really it takes a little convincing before the first walk of the winter; but I love it once I decide to go. Today was mild and easy walking; very enjoyable really.

Back into the Swing of Things!!/Mail

I am finding it very difficult to get back to a routine. With the holidays and my husband home for the winter; I find I am not taking the time I should with my sewing and quilting....but, here we go.

I have got a commissioned quilt in the frame and hand quilting it. I put it in on New Year's Eve, it is about 1/2 quilted. This isn't the best picture,but you get to see the quilt. I am also doing some practice on my FMQ for the challenge this month...Frances has given a wonderful Tutorial to follow...loving the leaves. I still have to get my sample quilt pieced....and I am working on something for next month; surprise..lol.

Here is a pic of the quilt for now.  hope you stick with me to see what is coming up later on. Enjoy your weekend. Oh I had to come back in and add to this post.  I just got my mail for the day; nice surprise package in it. My Happy Camper Dessert Roll  was there!!! Thank you Katie from Katie's Salt Marsh Path....this was from here Christmas giveaway....the fabric is lovely.
