Luck Truck and March Stitches
I was looking for another St. Patrick's Day stitch to do and I found Luck Truck on Pinker N Punkin Quilting Blogspot.
https://pinkernpunkinquilting.blogspot.com/2022/03/truckin-along-in-luck-truck-st-patricks.html It's about 3/4 the way down the page. Melisa gives out a lot of charts that she creates. This truck is really cute!
I started Luck Truck on Sunday, February 18, 2024 on 16 ct Fiddler's Cloth and the called for DMC. The white sheep did not show up so I changed it to a gray color #3 DMC. I finished stitching on February 20.

Luck by Bent Creek
I saw this pattern on a flosstube by Helen D. So I bought it!
I started it on February 10th using an old piece of fabric - 30 ct Old Mill Java and a mix of Gentle Arts and DMC floss.
I'm looking through my calendar and remembered that we lost electric on February 13 at 9:43 am and did not get it back again until February 15 around 3:30 pm. That really sucked! We live in the country and need electric for heat and water. We could use our gas stove top but not the oven. We melted snow to flush the toilet. Really makes you glad when the electric comes back on and you can flush!
I finished Luck on February 17 and fully finished it on March 3rd. I used a wood piece that I bought at Dollar Tree. I painted it Lime Green with the JoAnn Fabrics paint.
I decorated with a few things I also got at Dollar Tree.

Winter Cometh
On January 7th, I started Winter Cometh by Summer House Stitche Workes, a Pennsylvania designer - Summer House Stitche Workes. I do not know what the fabric is. When I went through some boxes in the garage I found 3 yards of this evenweave fabric. I used the called for DMC floss.

Winter Cross Stitch Camp from the Colorado Stitcher
Sheri the Colorado Stitcher (coloradostitcher.com) on IG is running her Winter Cross Stitch Camp again for 2024. The prompt is to stitch something with an animal on the chart. I chose Winter Bird by Heart in Hand. There is a free badge chart on her website if you participate in the challenge or decide to stitch it. 2024 Winter Cross Stitch Camp Pattern by Colorado Cross Stitcher

Snow, Snow and More Snow!
Tuesday we woke up to a lot of snow. My husband starting clearing it away and then we lost power. We got 9 inches or so of heavy wet snow. It was so pretty. But by 2 pm, the temps were in the 40s and it started melting.
Now this morning, we got quite a surprise! Even more snow than we got on Tuesday. A lot more than 9 inches.
