When you girls down under are having summer, we in the northern part of the globe are having the worst part of winter (in my not so humble opinion).....
Cold, damp, snowy, but yet with promise of spring, since the days are getting longer since winter solstice.
Hot beverages are a must in my sewing corner, and a lit candle can brighten any cold, damp winter day!
The 2 beverage blocks are from part 1 (December) and part 3 (February)
I have not yet made the strips to go in between the block rows, but I will shortly, as soon as I get at least one row done.
I am making this quilt from my fabric collection, so I need to figure out which fabrics goes best with the blocks I have made.
Now to trace the Jane Austen book block, and maybe the jeans block ...

1st SAL.....Peg, Dale and I committed to stitching Anni Downs - A Gardener's Journal in March 2010. We have set the time frame as completed March 2011. I blogged about this on my blog thinking maybe one or 2 others may join us and lots of girls indicated an interest so I decided to start this blog where we can all encourage each other to meet the goals set along the way................

I always love a hot chocolate........maybe you could include a candle in there somewhere.....
Hope it warms up for your soon. Days are getting shorter here! Love your blocks. Happy Stitching, Susie
Some of us down here in Summer are wishing we were in winter - maybe not for the snow etc but better than the blistering heat. I love your blocks and candle - lovely picture.
I'm with you !! It's so cold these days here !!! Hot beverages of all kind are welcome !
