The sun is shining and the snow is melting the
snow so boots that don’t leak are a necessity….which means I have to go boot
shopping. When we walked the other day I told Joe that I must have to spray my
winter boots with sealant again because I think they are leaking. I took a
better look at the boots today and they don’t need sealant, they need
replacing. Darn. These were the most comfortable boots I’ve ever had but time
to get new ones. Hope there are still some around. It’s near the end of January
so I imagine all the stores have the summer stuff coming in. We shall see.
The snow just didn’t want to quit yesterday
and was still coming down when I left the quilt guild meeting at 9:00. It was
just a light snowfall though and not much accumulated but the roads were a bit
slippery in places. Last night they taught us how to do needle-turn appliqué which
I’ve never done but wanted to learn. I enjoyed it but I have lots of other
quilts to make before I start a new project.
The background is one of my favourites. Lots
of pouncing on alcohol on glossy cardstock until got just he look I wanted. I
mounted it on black and then on a piece of orange paper that matched the colour
of the alcohol inked one. Love it when that happens. This time I die cut the
flower out of black cardstock and simply glued it on. The sentiment is a
peel-off and I just happened to have one in black writing. The ribbon is from
my stash. Stickles just had to be added to the flower too. Flowers need bling!
That’s all for a Thursday,
Cheers
Violet
