Part of our fun this weekend - Winterfest 2020. There was pond hockey, a snowmobile race, grilling burgers on the frozen lake, a band and a dance in a tent pitched on the frozen lake. Best of all, tHe boys got to see their first fireworks! I want to remember their reaction when the first one went off. Max let out a bit “Wow!”, then yelled for his brother, grabbed his hand and then they ran towards the fireworks, to get a good seat by the fence. They held hands the whole way, weaving through the crowd - This after squabbling in the car and misbehaving in a friend’s fish house, so it was what this momma needed to see. . . #winterfest2020 #firstfireworksI love seeing my boys reading together - especially comics because Carter does all the voices so much better than I do 😀. After a long day, the simple things in life are so good to make you step back and appreciate life! . . #lovetheseboys #appreciatethesmallthingsinlifeMaking progress on the first section of my Wildflower Sampler! One more block and I am ready to sew this section together. #wildflowersampler #wildflowersamplerbom #ankastreasures #samplerquilt #flowerquilt #fatquarterquilt #quilt #quilts #quiltersofinstagram #essexlinen #maker #creative #makersgonnamakeLook at this cute quilt that showed up in my Insta feed this morning! It’s @tawnya_gram version of my Let It Snow pattern. (The second and third photos are ones I’ve made). It uses just one layer cake and some background fabric - probably something already in your stash! See the link in my pattern to find the PDF download. #letitsnow #letitsnowquilt #angleswithease2 #trianlger #ankastreasures #quilts #quiltersofinstagram #winterquilts #treequilts #maker #creativesewingThe 30-40 mph wind howling and freezing temps make this a perfect day to stay out and sew. While rummaging in my studio, I’ve decided that I’m going to make all of the test blocks from the Wildflower Sampler into another quilt. I have many of them done already so it won’t be much work and I think the bright flowers with brighten up these winter days (and my Insta feed). If anyone else is working on these blocks, feel free to join in and tag them #wildflowersampler. . . #ankastreasures #wildflowersamplerbom #wildflowersamplerbook #quilts #quiltersofinstagram #howtobrightenwinterdays #samplerquilts #flowerquilts #fatquarterquiltCalendar
