It's getting to be very cold outside!--perfect excuse for staying in and doing some stitching! This week we got our first snow (not very much) and Saturday morning, we woke up to an ice covered lake. It will be a while before the ice is thick enough to walk on though.

| I finished the latest Buttermilk Basin block during an applique meeting at Colorz on Friday.... |
 |
| and now, since I'm finished with my Stars in the Garden for the time being, I needed a Slow Stitching project. I thought it would be a good idea to revisit Mrs. Billings--it's been too long!! |
 |
| I have the four corner rosettes for Border Nine finished and when I have the 24 sets of rosettes needed for the rest of the border basted, I will start to assemble them. There's still Borders Five through Eight to deal with, but I'll think about that tomorrow--lol! Have a great day stitching! Linking with Slow Sunday Stitching HERE  |
Love Mrs. Billings! Great fabric choices :)
