Happy Snowy Farmy Quilty 08

It's snowin like a major MOJO here in Farmland.
Weather reports say an additional 4-6 more inches on top of what weve got already.
The only working snowblower is rendered useless in my polebarn due to a very frozen door.
We had planned to go out and see a movie at the nearby theatre but decided against it due to the State Police reporting some roads impassable.So it's going to be a leftover New Years DVD rental.More Johnny Depp."Deadman"
We saw "Sweeny Todd" this past weekend and enjoyed it. Those who might be a bit squeemish ( like myself) will probably want to close their eyes during the super juicy parts. I thought the makeup, costumes and just the general cinematography was outstanding. My favorite part was the "fantasy scene" of Mrs. Lovett.
Do I have to even mention Mr. Depp?????................ go on then, love!
Sooooo,........... anyway................
The snow was up to the top of my snow boots( and falling in) when I went out to let the chickens out
@ 7:30 and my foot prints were covered up by the time I got up to actually start my day.
So here for your viewing pleasure:
a customer quilt I finished a few weeks ago.....it was a big one and will be residing with my clients mother in one of the Carolinas......
