My world looks pretty much like that of UNBIDDEN. There was some melting today, as the temps were in the high 40s and we had a big all-day rainstorm yesterday. Just enough to give a spring-like smell to the air and tantalize. Already the radio weatherman says to prepare for a lot colder weather starting Monday, and possible MORE snow Wedneday. Argh! It's not fair. I've had to plan errands with care. Every errand depended on whether I thought I could get a parking space upon my return, as every other place to park a car was piled high with snow and at the same time competing with the thoughtless students at a nearby college, who think it's fine to leave 3 or 4 feet between their car and the next car fore and aft. So people who own residences can't even park in front of their own home! Having to park 2 and 3 blocks away from my own home, especially when carrying heavy packages, is not fun, especially when it's icy. The students couldn't care less.

Stacy, You made the apron & the towels? How lovely! I can't even stitch a straight line. They're beautiful and I agree, the patches on the towels look like fruit crate labels (which I love). I'm loving the bowls (of course) and the canisters too...the canisters remind me of the kinds they used to show with the old Hoosier cabinets. (sherry, I hope that you opened those canisters up outside & shook them out really well. That fertility dust is invisible, you know). I just realized that nearly everything in that box had multiplied! Eek! Nina

Oh, great! I was wondering if you got it. Enjoy! To me, it's not her best, but it's not bad, either.
