Here is my twister quilt so far! I've cut out my blocks and put them back together. I am happy with the way it turned out and thought it was much easier than I expected. I was a little hesitant to cut out the blocks but but I think that was the hardest step for me. Once I got over cutting my quilt top, everything else just seemed to fall into place. My contrast could be a little better but I did choose the border after I put the blocks together. I didn't really know how it would turn out. The colors are actually more vibrant in person. I would definitely make another one. It was fun and it's a surprise as to how it actually turns out. I feel it's another nice method to make a quilt.
Like most of the country, we've had a very mild winter. We really hadn't had much snow, up until today! We got about 7 inches so far. This is my view from my front door. I'm lucky to have been off from work today. Snow is so much prettier to look at than to drive through! I'm hoping it stops soon. It's our first real snowstorm and I'm already sick of the snow! Guess I've been spoiled this year!
I'm finally retired and feel I can do what I love. I'm so happy to be out of the rat race! I try to quilt, read and knit as much as possible. I love to get comments and will respond to each and every one! I hope you enjoy my little blog as much as I do! Thank you for visiting me!
