DROP....What???

Yeah, November Schnibbles parade tomorrow.  I LOVE seeing all of the variations.
Make sure you visit the lovely Sherri - A Quilting Life and Sinta - Pink Pincushion
to see more versions.  
I chose to do version 1 of Drop by Carrie Nelson using "Coming Home" by Deb Strain. 
Yep, that is snow.  Left from Thanksgiving - when it was 65 the day before!


I love the barnyard prints!  And I love chickens.  I really wish I could have some.


I am going to use the barn wood prints for a scrappy binding.


 My other sewing project right now is a charity quilt.  My company posts names with a 
Christmas gift wish through the local Social Service agencies.  The first one I saw was for 
a 57 yr old woman who wanted a colorful lap blanket.  I hope a lap quilt is ok.  :)

Things are kind of quiet in some ways, and stressful in others.  
I found out my job will end May 31, so I am now on a job hunt.
Sigh.  

I am glad that my Lord has plans for me - 
plans that will prosper me and give me a hope and a future!
