Lights and little houses

The sounds of happiness, the bright lights and the faint but delicious smells of Christmas cooking reminded him of past Christmas times when his wife had still been alive and his own children little.
- Leo Tolstoy, "Papa Panov's Special Christmas"

Hello, is anybody there??  Good!

I guess we have to listen to the right news!





I just went outside to get a package from my neighbor's porch and boy is it windy and cold!  Yesterday morning I woke up around 7:30 and wanted to re-snuggle under the quilts and catch some more sleep, then I remembered his lights ... those b-l-i-n-k-i-n-g  lights that I had to get up and turn off.  That boy better come home soon, I tell you what!!

I'm working on a project that I can't show you yet, but I did do some more of those cute little houses from the scraps given to me at guild... 

aren't these cute?  There are 16 of these, they make up really fast!  I had been thinking of parking them in my Parts Department til later, maybe using them for a border.  But now that I see them grouped together, I think they'd make a sweet quilt on their on, with sashing between.   Something to think about!

Well, that's it for today, here's a quilty hug to insert into your day...

take a nibble as often as you like!  Sew forth and sew on til later...
