My pretty Verna,

well actually it’s Kate Spain’s pretty Verna line for Moda.

I am going to make another Scrufflily style quilt because for me it’s all about the fabric and I don’t want to cut it up too much, and…. …… I. love. scruffily quilts! I am making mine a little larger though, it will have 56 blocks.

I was just sewing today not planning on taking any pictures, laying my blocks on the blue chair and hanging the completed rows over the rail, and I thought that fabric looks so pretty I should take a picture.

These two chairs are probably about 60 –75 years old, I was planning on refinishing them~ someday...... , but the more I look at them I think they have come back in style just the way they are, chippy and a happy blue! I will leave them just the way they are…and they go nice with my new quilt.

I hung the Valentine banner in my sewing room, it goes well with the curtains. It snowed another 28” Friday evening and most of the day Saturday, we’ve broken a record here for the most snowfall in a winter season. We never get this much snow. More snow predicted for Tuesday, so who knows I may get my Verna finished this week, I hope so.

Ok I better go watch the Super Bowl game.
