Feeling modern today!

I made these "Beads on a String" blocks for this month's Block Lotto drawing. They're not my usual style, but they're very cute! I love the colors, and have more in my stash so I'll make more if I get a chance.

Snow Day = Celtic Solstice progress

New York City got another dumping of snow yesterday. The storm started only 12 hours after the Super Bowl finished---it snowed pretty much all day yesterday, and left everything looking clean and beautiful again. I love the city right after it snows! It's so quiet for those couple of hours it takes the plows to get out and get the city running again.
I took advantage of the weather and a gap in my schedule to finish sewing together my Celtic Solstice blocks so I could post a progress photo on Bonnie Hunter's final link-up.  I still need to finish putting together the pieced border.....but there's more snow in the forecast so you never know.
