Snowflakes!

I did a post some of you may remember not too long ago where I shared my drama whereas everything that could go wrong did go wrong. Well, I think my luck is finally turning around a bit. I got a job, found my glasses after the snow melted, and found my velcro dots that had gotten misplaced when I organized my studio. (It is dangerous to put things where you will be sure to find them~lol!)

Besides that, I won this gorgeous bead snowflake from Marie. It is so lacey and sweet and, best of all, sparkles in the sun. I just love it! She makes such beautiful and delicate jewelry. Here is a link to her blog so you can see for yourself. Be sure to visit her ArtFire shop (through the link on her blog)! Thank you so much Marie. I will think of your generosity whenever I see it.

Real snowflakes are in the forecast here for tomorrow and the rest of the week. I don't think it will be nearly as bad as our friends in Minnesota and some of the other states in its path to the north have had to endure. I did actually see a few Robins nearby a couple of days ago and to me, that is a sure sign spring is on its way! I can tell the weather is going to change from my headache.

I have been sewing a couple of American Girl doll clothing pieces for my twin granddaughter's 6th birthday next week and will share photos when the clothes are completed. I am nervous about the hooded jacket fitting since I couldn't find any pre-quilted fabric and had to add batting for fullness to the coat. It is turning out adorable anyway. It may just have to hang in her closet until AGD shrinks. The little dress and jacket are sweet and I am especially enjoying the 'accessorizing'. I think the girls will be excited to get them. I let them choose the pieces they wanted and they chose fabric from my stash, but otherwise haven't seen anything yet.

It's been a great week!
