No, we're not having snow YET but rumor has it we're going to get some in the next couple of days.....
Me, I could wait for the snow to come on Tuesday but that's just me. You ask why Tuesday? Well, I go back to school on Wednesday and could enjoy a couple extra days off...ya know?
Anyway....My 2013 UFO list is made and ready to post this weekend but I decided that I had to pull the "Snow Days" project out to work on. It was #1 on my UFO list and although it's totally NOT me, I was almost paralyzed at the thought of pulling the pile of blocks, fabric and embroidery units out. Did I mention that this is totally not like me to be so apprehensive? Well, I was!
I did get lucky though....One of the girls I did the BOM with had posted a picture of one of the troublesome areas "for me" to the yahoo site we'd set up to show each other our progress so I took it "One step at a time, small sections, not just the big picture" and guess what? That worked!!!
So, it's up on the design wall and there's only 1 small opening so all I need to do is pull some small units that are already made out, connect them and then get crackin assembling the center.
I cannot believe I just let it all go since July 2010!!!!
It's almost embarrasing!
Oh well, I'm not gonna talk about it anymore, just get sewing and hopefully be done before I have to put it on the 2013 UFO list.....

Git 'er done girlie!! We're rooting for you!
Slow and steady wins the race! Keep at it, little by little, and you will be done in no time!
I am always excited when I see someone working on this quilt. I bought at in Houston 3 years ago and haven't touched it yet. It will be for me when I do make it because it is beautiful and so much work. I was trying to get some of my UFO's out of the way so I could be prepared to start it, but so many babies keep being born and young couples getting married that I haven't seen an end in site. I am going to try again this year to start it just for me. Thanks for sharing yours!
proud of you! keep going!!
Go Peggy, go! You're so close. Heck, I bet it's already stitched together by now. I haven't been on blogs for a little while. You've been busy!! :o)
