Snow?

I live in sunny California - it's not suppose to snow here. Right? At least not where I live. Right? Last night we got an inch of snow here, here as in my front yard. The last time there was significant snow in the Sacramento area was in 1976. I remember it snowed the first year I lived here (1999) but it was just a few flakes that melted before they hit the ground. I went out at 7 a.m. to take pictures of the snow on my Aunt's car - sorry, no pictures, doesn't work if you forget to put the memory chip in the camera (picture me slapping my forehead). Oh did I mention it was COLD last night. Yes, I'm a wimp, there is a reason I live in (formally) sunny California.

Remember the fabric bundle I bought a few weeks ago? Saturday I made three of these...

My niece has a 4 year old daughter, she is dating a young man with daughter's who are 3 and 2 years old. I'm making them each a gathered skirt. I just love how they turned out. Each skirt took three fat quarters and they were so easy to make. I have a feeling they are going to be too big, so when I go up to Oregon this year for Christmas I'll bring my Featherweight with me to custom tailor each skirt. Cute, bright and sunny.
