Ending the 'Leap' Month

Although it seemed to go by too fast, I am happy February is over.  Now we didn't get all those huge snow storms like so many, but we had extreme cold, extreme rains, extreme thunderstorms, extreme winds and for a giggle - Mother Nature threw in a day or two of warm.  A very strange month! 

How did I do on my short Goal list?

Completed my 'Let's Book It' project.  And you really need to visit the linky party to see what other's acheived - fabulous projects!!  Maybe you will join us next month.

Kept up with all of my RSC16 blocks and the column quilt.  I am glad that we are done working brown.  As someone said to me - brown mud and  brown trees, just tired of it!

  

My Slow Sunday Stitching didn't include any cross stitch this month as planned, but it was used for bindings, a little hand quilting, and keeping on track with the '365' project.  My circles really reflect our February.

Yes, January and  February at a glance.  A bit of color here and there as well as a splash of bright - my hopefull days or my dreaming days.

Now my Do More of What Makes You Happy:

The Amish Nines miniature

Testing patterns for  Bea Lee of BeaQuilter.  

Using up scraps

Building some house blocks for a block lotto

AND quilting

My SIL's quilt using up her scraps - this is her version of Nifty Nines.  I didn't realize I had chopped the top until I came in from photoing, but this has the piano key border all the way around.  She is still working on the binding on the other at home, so a photo will have to wait.

The 'Dottie' completed

The last (extra) day of the month I am going to just play!
