Rose Prairie Quilts and Farm

We still have snow on the ground, which I thought we were going to lose today because there was a prediction of rain but that didn't come about. It was cold and a good day to stay in.  Today was a good day, I got to speak to a lot of family today through face time or over the phone. Work on our taxes for last year. And did get a little bit of sewing done. All mainly handwork.  I did prepping for my "Words to Live By" BOM by Primitive Gathering.  you want a good reference book for appliqueing, this is it;Jeanne Sullivan's Simply Successful Applique I also worked on my Morning Glory Designs  BOM ,  I did the Iris block. And I did some appliquéing on the Columbine block.  So in retrospect, it with a good day. I'm going to be linking this post at Kathy's quilt for her Slow Sunday that she has every Sunday. You need to check it out, there's some really neat things going on out there and I enjoy reading other peoples blogs.

It has been a very relaxing Sunday for me. With the new cold front that came in today it was a great day to to watch a good movie and do some handwork. I had prep the first block of Morning Glory's BOM,  Columbine  I know the picture she has is with a black background but I wanted to do mine in an off white sateen. I just love the look of sateen. We watched the movie Boyhood. I thought it was so nice to see the actors all age naturally. I felt it displayed real life. And then we watch the first few episodes of Longmire on Nexflix. I was so pleased when they picked up that series after A & E dropped it.  I'm going to link this up at Kathy's Quilt and I hope you'll go check out all the others who have too.
