Rude awakening....


When I got up this morning the calender said " spring" 
so I took down the winter quilt and hung the spring one.  

A Karen Neary design " Meadow Song". Our 2010 workshop.
Next I changed the bench panel in the Hall from the snowman to the spring flowers.   

  This a four season piece I painted way back in 1991.
The runner I did with a charm pack in the Kansas Troubles. 

 In my quest to make the house feel like spring, I had a rude awakening when hubby left for his walk...  
Instead of buds on the Rhododendron  there was icicles.
Whew! another  storm... 
I ventured out and on the road to work and I was slipping and sliding.. At one point the car was moving sideways and I cannot explain the feeling I had as I realized I was looking at a fairly steep slope. At that point I am certain God took the wheel because I was useless. It did straighten out but in the wrong direction. That was my message...  GO BACK!!!

The guild members said good-bye to a wonderful member today.
Cerita passed away Monday surrounded by her loving family. She was not ill very long so it is a bit of a shock.  She was a very active member who loved to quilt and share her many quilting talents.
Cerita will be missed.

  2. Oh thank goodness you were not hurt! How terribly scary that must have been. (God was really looking after you.) Sorry to hear of your friends passing. Although it was a bit of a shock - I'm glad she didn't suffer.
