autumn seems to have left early and let winter come. this picture is from the side door of our garage looking out into the backyard the morning of our first snowfall this year. winter wonderland indeed.

yesterday we got in part of our first order of Astor Manor by 3 Sisters. this line is yummy…yes, i mean yummy with its strawberry, chocolate, cherry, cream, and champagne. all we have right now are fat quarter bundles, but we will be making a new Mona Lisa Tote out of this line using the houndstooth woven pictured below and chocolate grommets.

happy quilting…april –sweetwater
