Holidays are Over

Well, the Holidays are over and the rush has died down. Everyone starts back to work/school tomorrow and it's time to get started on a new year! After the financial mess of the last two years or so, I'm hoping that this year will be better than we've seen in awhile. Here in Phoenix, the weather has cooled down for the winter, and everyone is enjoying the sunshine and the chance to be outside. It won't be many more months before the temperature starts to shoot up again, so we have to enjoy it while we can. Winter in Phoenix brings many things to look forward to, but among them for me are the Sewing & Quilting Festival the end of January, and the Renaissance Festival. I look forward to those two events all year and now they are right around the corner! I hope everyone is staying bundled up out there, especially those in the snow areas! It's a great time of year to be working on a quilt!
