Most of the plants are flourishing but some just turn up their toes when we least expect it! The weird ones are when we plant three of the same thing, from the same nursery, purchased and planted on the same day, and one dies even while Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07760744006915967397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5714267215408294197.post-4807112494799867162016-01-20T16:30:17.147-05:002016-01-20T16:30:17.147-05:00THe socks are so cheerful!

She's her daddy's girl for sure!<br /><br />I am looking forward to inspecting your clamshell quilt pieces next month. I can't decide from the screen whether they look fun or frustrating! :)<br /><br />Hope the tarps do their job well and that it Marselhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16820610987108890093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5714267215408294197.post-31697758089250904152016-01-20T13:40:23.742-05:002016-01-20T13:40:23.742-05:00That handspun is beautiful and knitting up so warm...That handspun is beautiful and knitting up so warmly. The tarp for the flowers cold protection is brilliant. I'm really enjoying the post bits on the clamshell quilt because I've never seen that before. My mother used to do a Japanese fan block pieced together that used to get some colorful language out of her, this looks difficult!elnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09654199835246576704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5714267215408294197.post-83969346066706854062016-01-20T12:48:38.054-05:002016-01-20T12:48:38.054-05:00Love churn dash!

Whatever happened to our normal winters? Going below 30 is not normal and we seem to do it all the time now and I HATE it. I've got blue tarps all over the place too-for the poor outside kitties. It's so cold that one actually came in and stayed tonight. Love the projects. Those socks are very pretty.Araigneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10543030200956480168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5714267215408294197.post-20505952428380839642016-01-19T23:30:23.139-05:002016-01-19T23:30:23.139-05:00Abigail's Grandma Socks are such a pretty colo...Abigail's Grandma Socks are such a pretty color combo.<br /><br />I didn't cover the outside plants. I don't think we will actually get down below freezing. I did bring in the pitcher plant and all of the orchids are in the tub in the spare bathroom. Giroux had a good time hunting down the lizards that came in on the pitcher plant. I'm sure the lizards appreciated me "Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
