It's supposed to get into the negative double digits (may be in excess of 30 below normal temp and there is a wind-chill advisory as well) for several nights in a row. I fear without enough of a snow blanket to insulate, there may be frozen pipes, septic lines, and drain fields. Yikes! Please no! Unfortunately there isn't much snow in the forecast. :-(charityquilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02225290098631573597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-2061044198741722482021-02-04T08:57:16.113-05:002021-02-04T08:57:16.113-05:00LOVE the Jackknife blocks!

We'll go back again when Corvid is gone and weather is nicer. Thank you for the time and energy you put into your blog. I look forward to reading about your life and following you on Instagram. <br />Linda Hiatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17738338756153200008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-20509213749652632702021-02-03T21:42:20.964-05:002021-02-03T21:42:20.964-05:00Bonnie, I really watching and listening to your z...Bonnie, I really watching and listening to your zoom program!

If you can't make the most of where you are and have fun with it, then you shouldn't be there. I couldn't do the meet, work duties and all that. Maybe I will catch it on YouTube. Can't wait to see the finished Jacknife blocks!! Have a great evening and hopefully some thawing comes soon!!

I had a Rottweiler that we could “block” from going up the stairs with a small box on a step. He could have easily jumped over or pushed out of the way lol.

What a blessing to get to be home and still be busy. I know that the financial end has been a challenge, for so many, but quilters are definitely learning a bit more about how the quilters of yore made do with what they had. That "make do" has to be the initial inspiration for string quilts!!Farm Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01670652033638218941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-77730990679023632072021-02-03T13:00:53.988-05:002021-02-03T13:00:53.988-05:00I thoroughly enjoyed the museum yesterday via vide...I thoroughly enjoyed the museum yesterday via video.

Last week my 8 month old kittens came in behind me and started prowling around and while I was pulling out fabric the managed to get onto a windowsill over a bookcase. A large Christmas cactus lives on the top of the bookcase. The loveable but clumsy teenaged boy kitten knocked the plant to the floor. Fortunately most of the plant stayed in the pot, but I have 2 pieces rooting in water.
