update

A few days ago I shared a project that I had started, and now have finished:

Cold

Colder

Coldest

And it's Christmas on the quilt frame!

This is a quilt that will go to my friend, Diane, and was partially made of blocks from her quilting friends a few years ago. Diane added her own applique blocks to make it complete. This has been a real group project, with many hands making it possible. Diane has had some bad health and bad luck lately, so it will be fun to get this back to her.

It has been warming up around here, and there are signs that the glacier is receding!

For about 4 months, Bob has kept a little path clear from the back step to the grill (because a guy never knows when he might need to grill even in the middle of a blizzard!) and now the edge of the ice is shrinking away. It's a promising sign!
