Winter Activites

The days of Winter are dark ... and often dull and dreary ... so what are we doing to brighten things up?

Madge is working on a handicraft ...

With her handmade hook (hand carved by Paul from boxwood) ...

Old t-shirts and turtlenecks find new life ...

... as a crocheted rug takes shape

And for the non-rug-makers?

A Renoir slowly takes form ...

... and more snow is predicted.

How cozy your pictures look! We're looking forward to another "significant" snow tomorrow here in Richmond - I may need to pull out a crochet hook or puzzle myself. Looks fun!
