It's winter break for my daughter's school, and we are back in Montana for the week. My injured hand has been the perfect excuse to get out of skiing and spend time sewing. There are other families here from school so my husband has friends to ski with and everyone is happy!

I keep a little machine here in what I call my sewing closet. It's not my favorite, but I love being able to sew when I am here, and it is fine for block making.

This month I was invited to join the
Wish circle group of
do.Good Stitches {a charity bee}, and I am super excited to participate! February's blocks are
quilty cross blocks made with masculine fabrics in orange, olive green, royal blue and navy.

A few days ago I received an email reminding me of the approaching deadline for the
ALL SHIRTS. no shoes. swap. Oops....forgot I had signed up for that! I brought supplies enough to make ten shirts but stopped after making one. Think my Juki is better equipped for sewing over the bulky seams when joining the two halves together. I don't think one shirt is worth swapping though.

For Christmas I received this lovely quilt rack and it is finally put together. Thanks Mom! I love having a place for my quilts. They have been getting used quite a bit this week.
