I needed a Christmas gift, so I took a break from making the 365 blocks to make Julie Cefalu’s Cookie Plate Crumb Catcher.
Julie’s patterns and tutorials are easy to follow!
I used the bonus half square triangles that I made from the pattern to create the wreath design for the back of the quilt.
I know that you may not be able to see from the photos, but the blue is a sparkly fabric…just right for Christmas!
Perhaps you would like to make one, too! Or maybe you would like to make one of Julie’s other patterns…she has great gift ideas!
The oak leaves haven’t dropped yet, but they are turning. I think they are pretty cool!

We experienced our first winter snowstorm of the season.
*Clicking on a photo will give you a closer look!
It knocked out our power for about 45 hours.
It wasn’t a hardship for Hubby and me. We did fine with the woodstove, the barbecue, and the gravity spring.
The transparent apple tree and well behind the house.
So I had a little fun and went outside with my camera and took a few photos of the snow as it was coming down.
And I went out early on the morning after and photographed the sunrise.
The view from the side yard of the house.
As the sun rose higher, and the clouds burned off, I took a few photographs of a beautiful day!
Two photos from the same viewpoint…one at sunrise, and one in full daylight. I love them both!
Clearly, there is no power flowing through this line!
The view from the front of the house.
Hubby drove off to town to charge our devices.
Life is good.
Stay healthy.
Stay safe.
Keep smiling.
See the world around you!
