Just One of Those Days...

Woke to continued rain falling this morning quickly turning

into snow.  It had started raining last night and temperatures

quickly dropped.  Seemed more like late February instead of

late May.  Weather man said we got about 1.37 inches of

rain and that this is the latest measurable snow in the weatherman's

history.  However, the snow in the valley has melted, but

you can still see all the fresh snow on the mountains. 

Since I couldn't get outside and work, decided I would head

downstairs and tackle "one of those days" projects I keep saying 

I'll get to.  Have wanted to empty several of my laundry baskets 

filled with left-over fabrics and cut them into 4, 5 and 6 inch 

squares making my own "charm" packs.  Almost got one basket 

emptied, but it took a good part of the day.  Am happy to say

shelves are looking a little more "bare".

Also took a few minutes for another "one of those days"
projects"...my first Klosjes.  Decided to quickly make one
from the scraps left over from my squares I was cutting.
I must admit, they are fun!  

Sewing these "pillowcase" dresses has really helped to use up

fabric and lace that has been stored.

  

Got most of the bias binding for the armholes cut and sewed.   

I think I'll have about 46-50 dresses for our  church's 

humanitarian evening in June. The ladies will finish the

casing at the top and the armholes that evening.

Also finished adding the border to a small wall hanging and

cut out squares for "A Tisket A Tasket" and worked on a

small "bag" for my granddaughter's birthday tomorrow.

Am adding a picture of me and my new little grandson 

hoping that in years to come he will remember "one of

those days" that we shared when he was cuddled by his 

Grandmother.

Chilling out literally tonight.  Need to pull out one

of my "cuddle" quilts and read a good book as it

has been "one of those days".
