An arctic blast came down from Canada a couple days ago, which is pushing our temperatures in to the single digits for highs and below zero for lows. A great excuse to snuggle up in a quilt! One of my goals in life, is to make a seasonal quilt for each bed in the house. Christmas is finished, and I love each one. I think I posted photos of many of these last Christmas, but it's worth repeating I think!

| This quilt is one of the two in the elder suite. |
 |
| I think the Santa face border is so sweet! |
 |
| Baxter is not yet an elder, and he's not supposed to be on the bed in this room but here he is! |
 |
| Could you kick him off?!?!? |
 |
| This is the quilt on our bed. I LOVE THIS QUILT! It was a long time in the making but worth it. |

| Guest room quilt. |

| A closer view of the blocks, the border and the prairie point border. |

| I think the little people on sleds are so darling. |
Yesterday I went to the Harrington school to help with Santa's Workshop. Each year, for many many years, the school has sponsored a craft day for grades K-12. Students have an opportunity to make a variety of gifts which they get to take home to give to family and friends. I haven't helped every year, but many. This year I was in charge of a project and this is what we made. It was such a fun afternoon!

The sunset yesterday afternoon was so pretty. Cold and clear. Fast approaching the shortest day of the year.
 |
| Outdoor decorations that don't mind the bitter cold. |
It's supposed to warm up next week, with a little more snow predicted. Looking forward to both!
