Late for the party?

Or early?  I'm going with early.  One of my 2012 goals was to get the (2010) 12 Days of Christmas BOM from the FQS completed this year.  I only had the last block to piece and I got that done yesterday.  Next up is sashing the blocks and get it into a top.  But that will come in time.  I need to do a little shopping.  I went to the fabric store on Sunday morning and I looked at their red selection and nothing was quite right.  I think my option is to find some 12 Days or Flurry red online.

For some super Christmas cuddling, I'm thinking backing in flannel.  I know it's not much but it feels good to get part 1 of this WIP off my to do list.

We did end up spending an overnight at a hotel on Sunday (it was FREEZING outside).  We had a good time.  We took Amelia to the local aquarium for a while and then we spent some time in the hotel pool.  Would have been better if the pool water was about 10 degrees warmer but us adults survived.  :)  It was a nice mini getaway.

Last night we got some snow.  First big snow since October.  October we got knocked out by snow.  This morning?  Only 2 inches.  But it was enough to give Amelia a 90 minute school delay.  As I'm typing, she is outside enjoying the snow before school starts.

Enjoy your day!
