It is wonderful to have a space where I can spread my mess out and leave it until it's finished :) You should give quilting a try, you just might surprise yourself :)Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187302890702147585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136180253380173794.post-52067635167579716002017-01-27T08:29:55.563-08:002017-01-27T08:29:55.563-08:00Hi Marilyn, I laughed throughout your comment; it ...Hi Marilyn, I laughed throughout your comment; it drew a comical picture in my mind of this old lady pulling herself through the icy to get to her Art Barn. It would be a sight, LOL. Steve just called out to me a minute ago and said, "Look out the window" . . . it's coming down again, tiny flakes but full force. Spring is going to look so good this year. Thank you for your sweet blogging friendship.

You are amazing how fast you finished your projects. Your Art Barn looks so COZY and inviting. Love those mason jar lights in front of your quilt.. and love the cozy look of your loft. I want to be there! We are lucky not to have had any ice yet this year.. just tons of snow. I think if all of my crafting stuff was in a building away from my house, I'd have hubby hook up some sort of pully from my house to the building, then get an old sled and sit down on it and pully myself over to the building! I could not be away from it for more than a day! I'd say have hubby pull you on a sled or one of those discs, but don't want hubby to fall either! If we had ice, we'd have to slide down our driveway on one of those plastic discs. I do hope you get over to your Art Barn today... I'm sure it's calling your name. It's sunny here and a balmy 43 so I'm loving it. Can actually walk to the car, get in and drive somewhere without worrying about the bad roads. I too hibernate when the weather is so cold and bad. I actually got out yesterday and it really felt good. But I don't mind being home for a week or two in the bad weather. That's the pleasure of retirement. Have a wonderful "artsy" Sunday! xoxoxo MarilynMarilyn McLeod @ Pink Paper Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13166022624714254716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136180253380173794.post-48767054045689904932017-01-20T18:45:42.649-08:002017-01-20T18:45:42.649-08:00Hi Cindy, thanks so much for being such a sweet bl...Hi Cindy, thanks so much for being such a sweet blogging sister.

Every time one of us goes outside the other watches from the window, ready to rescue each other if we fall. Steve has ice cleats that fit over his shoes so that's a good thing. He went out and worked on the pathway the best that he could, because he knows how much I want to be out in the barn. What a sweet man :)Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187302890702147585noreply@blogger.com
