Thank you so much! Yeah, Teresa Wentzler is an amazing designer. I'm in awe on how 7 different blends of Pink and gray became a castle wall!

You have some beautiful projects! I am a Teresa Wentzler big fan! I am doing the Princess and the dragon at the moment and I am amazed at her talent as a designer.

I don't remember having a snow day for it being too cold either. I grew up in MA and we had plenty of snow. Great progress on your new starts. Have you thought about dying fabric for $$? How do you keep track of your time on each of your projects? Keep up the good work. I'm working on Teresa Wentzler's Footprints pattern for my daughter. The blends are beautiful but really can i get a little block stitching please. Patricia

I have not thought about dying fabrics for money. I'm not sure it would give me the joy it does now. I run a stop watch on my phone, while I'm stitching, and after every session, I take a screen shot, and then a photo of which project it is. At the end of the week, I go though my photos and write down the times. I then use a stopwatch calculator, and add up the times. That is a beautiful TW, and I hope your daughter loves it! I always say, TW never met a blend she didn't love!

You're quite right about that.😂 Patricia
