Up and Down

 


Yes, our weather has been up and down - and even back and forth!  March is such a fickled month for sure.


Our region was lucky to get this last storm on the 'small' size.  It would snow for a couple of hours, then rain and sleet to ice it over, then a repeat a few times over.  The icing was pretty on the trees, but so it too damaged them and took a lot down over several areas - along with the power.


I find that I rather do bindings completely by machine, but with power loss they were tackled by hand rather than sit.  And you make yourself sweat over 'is that binding long enough' just for giggles.  Geesh, I could have had something with color!  3 black and one dark brown for these grey days BUT they are all done.

Sewingly Yours,

Sharon

Thanks for the chuckle with the weather message. I can relate!

That sign is hilarious, and so true just about every March. At least you got some finishes under your belt in spite of the power outages. Hope you stayed warm!

Down here our March has been similar, no snow where we live, but torrential rain last night.I am SO thankful my working days are over, at least those that involved actually going to another place to work, no travel or those ridiculous early morning get up alarms. Hope you had a light to see those dark bindings, having some handwork is a bonus when there is a power outage.

The March weather in the UK has been very fickle. So much rain that I think I'm turning into a duck. Stay safe and warm.

You really have had some weather this winter. Sorry about the tree damage from the ice. We get that where we live too, and it can be heart-breaking.

March can be such a wild ride weatherwise. Sounds like you've had a bit of all of it. Hope you've got the power back and are back to the sewing machine.

Our March weather in Massachusetts has been windy and unpredictable; a text-book March. Today is just right; lots of sun, no wind, just right. The prediction for later this week is snow showers. It happens.
