Cold, cold , cold

Well, it would seem we are well on our way into winter in the Northeast. Christmas is 2 weeks away and I just don't feel ready to deal with it yet. I will be on wood stove duty till April.

Yesterday dear hubby and I celebrated our 24th Wedding Anniversary. Went to our favorite lunch spot and had the greatest Gyro's. So yummy!

Currently working on a beautiful quilt project from Crabapple Hill pattern, Over The River and Through The Woods I adore her designs. I wanted this pattern for the longest time now and finally gave in and bought myself this gift along with others! Midnight Crow and Trick or Treat bags. I am making the quilt in the black & neutral color scheme just as pictured and then sometime down the road, I want to do it in reds and neutrals. Another biggie pattern purchase was Le Jardin from Bunny Hill Designs. These two companies make my heart flutter every time I see a new pattern. Just so classy and vintage. Right up my alley. I have been really smitten with the new fabric line from Moda, Rouenneries. In my opinion, this is one of the prettiest lines of fabric to come out in a very long time. Between the fabric and the Le Jardin pattern, I had to have it.

Great movie alert! Julie & Julia. This was such a cute movie. The acting was superb and the characters were really enjoyable. If you feel like being entertained without blood and guts or alien invasions, this is a sure bet.
