Hi Lori,
We missed out! New Market, VA didn't get any snow.
The PO is closed today, so don't hurt yourself shoveling to get out today.
Wonderful color choice.
Blessings,

Hi, Lori:
How pretty and fluffy like cotton candy. Pinocchio doesn't look like
he's impressed though. We still don't have any snow here in Massachusetts.
Do you want to send some our way?
I like the floss and linen colors!
Hugs,
Susan
If you're going to town just for the post office, don't worry about it...CLOSED today for Presidents Day! Stay in where it's warm, dry and cozy!
Enjoy your day!
Don't you love those winter wonderland type snows? I hope Pinocchio likes them!

Beautiful! Oh how I miss snow days! Love that puffy little Pinocchio...he looks sweet and gentle.
Stay warm,
Robyn

Love those colors! We have early spring here in NH. No snow...just brown and chilly with a good wind! Strange to think of snow south of me!
Hugs,
Courtney
Thank you for sharing your beautiful snowy pictures! I love your new thread choices - the bright 780 looks wonderful with the other colors.
Lovely, snowy photographs of the Farm from your windowpane. I feel certain that the peaceful time (sans power) shared with family shall be treasured always.
Wishing you joyful stitching with your soft, Springtime palette.
Warmly,
Judy
What an amazing snow storm. And to leave you powerless for so long. I am glad you had that wood stove. How fun to pretend for a moment that you lived way back when. Thanks for the post. -Steph-
