I live in coastal Nova Scotia and winter can get long. Every winter I make a quilt. That keeps me busy and I enjoy the project. This past month, I can measure my quilting progress by the number of nor’easters we’ve had. In fact, we’ve had three in the last ten days and my fingers are getting sore😃. I think one more storm will get me to the end of the quilting on my current project. That storm is predicted for Tuesday lol. I will still have to do the binding but the end is in sight.
Here are some photos of this winter’s project, Wedding Rings. It’s great to have a job like this to while away the stormy days. LM
Piecing it together...

Oh, my, @Lilysmom That is simply gorgeous. And what an absolutely brilliant way to keep your mind off those winter storms. It's almost like point/counterpoint.

I so admire people with this kind of talent!
Adopt me!

@Lilysmom Very beautiful and what neat stitching. I haven't quilted in years and arthritis and a stroke prevents my crocheting or quilting. But, I do enjoy seeing other peoples projects. Great way to spend winter. Thanks for sharing the pictures.
It's cloudy and cold here in southern Mo today with temperatures only in the 40s. I have put gardening on the back burner for awhile.

So beautiful!!!! A talent I wish I had!! I have a quilt that my dad bought me over 40 years ago when we used to go to Amish fair every year in Kutztown, PA.
My good friend gave me a beautiful quilt when I moved into this house.
Don't know if you keep the ones you make but I do know I always think of the many hours of work they take to make & craft when I snuggle up in mine!!!😊

My sister taught me to quilt almost 25 years ago. It was a very special gift. I am always an active person so winter doesn’t usually slow me down except for the big storms and heavy snowfalls. I enjoy my quilting time by the wood stove in the family room. It rounds out my winter activity.
Thank you all for for your kind comments. LM
