On the mend!

My back has been out for almost a month now. This week I finally started to feel some relief and I can expect to get better every day. Most of the day, I can get up and sit down with no pain, so that is awesome.

I am finished with the tea cozy I made for a MJF swap. My partner is a good friend, so I was able to make something a little more custom since I know a little bit about her. I took the pictures already and will put them here when she gets it in the mail next week.

Snow coming tomorrow night again. Maybe a lot!! All I am doing tomorrow is going to church, to the gym with my daughter and then home for the day. For dinner I am making shrimp scampi and I will finally be using my pasta attachment for the red mixer. I never made pasta from scratch before, so it will be fun.

A million little pieces (quilt style)

This is part of a wallhanging I started a while ago. It has many different pieces that you fuse to the background to make a scene. I like doing these, but have not made as many as I used to.
The other end of the pasture. I'll probably make the other pieces for this during my spring vacation from school.

Well, the main body of the million pieces quilt is done(my nickname for it anyway). There are two borders to make for it, and I will get to it sometime this week. I am working on a tea cozy for a swap at MJF. I drew the pattern for it and am ready to make it this week. Will post pictures after I send it to my partner, Jess.
