Looking good! Are you stitching the HRH with silks or DMC? I have Villages of HRH ready to start and am thinking about using DMC since silks are so expensive.

Block 9 looks great! And ooohh, Fancy Blackett! Love it! I'm hoping we don't get that much snow. I'd love to see no more snow this year. lol!

Our snowstorm was a bust. Snowed all day, but zero accumulation. I'm a very happy camper!

HRH -- good use of a snowstorm to finish a pretty block!

Catherine said...

Linda said...

All that snow looks pretty but it needs to get more spring like! I love that block. I think the orange looks good. The new start is great!

Beth said...

9" - wow that would shut things down fast here in western Oregon. We haven't had one good snow this entire winter.

Ranae ~ I'm sorry you can keep your snow I'm so done with it now.
I think it's really the shoveling that I'm sick of!!!
Wonderful job the the block ~ I not sure if I like the orange either ~ I'm think a gray or something would of been better.
I still can't believe how fast you stitch!!!

Yep--your back yard looks just like ours! I think that was the prettiest snowfall we've had all year.

Love your newest block finish, Ranae! And I really look forward to seeing Harvest Dance :)

We had a snow day on Tuesday. I must admit that it was a very pretty snowfall, but now I'm ready for spring.

Beautiful stitching!

Sally said...

The snow looks so pretty. I still long for snow even though we have had some.

Congratulations on finishing another block. It looks fantastic.

Beautiful scenery for stitching! Closing in on the houses, too. Oh, I love Fancey - look forward to seeing more. Stay warm and stitch on!
