So much snow! The ground is still covered a week later. It's crunchy on the top where it melts and refreezes. We had seven snow days, then eased back to school with a 2-hour delay, then 1-hour and a full day yesterday. Used the short school days to get ahead on some testing and writing pieces.
Used my snow days for this:
I've been asked to make a quilt in boy colors AND we have a new second cousin in the family. I used another
Project 12 quilts pattern- Little Owls. While I was cutting these wonderfully big blocks, I also cut blocks and strips for another Little Leapfrog. Disclaimer: This is NOT completely from stash :( but it was fun shopping for the grays and blues. I've been adding a narrow white sashing between the blocks this morning.
In other crafting news...
Two more pages in my
Documented Life journal. On the left, our theme was Words With Friends. I listed words from texts I'd received and silly conversations from a very special week in February. On the right is my attempt at one of the cardinals on the vertical strip. Again, very elementary :) The theme was What Lies Beneath. I used Psalm 91:4-
He will cover you with His feathers
under His wings you will find refuge. NIV
Happy Weekend!

What a cute journal.
Glad you are enjoying your snow days. Hope that it warms up soon.
The "boy" quilt is going to be adorable! (Your journal is, too!)
Great colors for your boy quilt! The blocks are perfect. Enjoy those snow days!!! We're getting tons of Ohio snow here too. Brrrr. But we expect it.
What a pretty pink bird for your journal!
Such a sweet boy quilt in progress. Very important that there are no pinks and purples. hehe : )
