November winter

Don't have any quilting photos, although have been handquilting my floor scrap quilt and have done some machine sewing on Andrew's scrappy bargello this weekend. It's been very wintery here. Lots of snow, which is unusual for November. It usually snows once or twice and then melts, this time we have had a whole week of snow, it hasn't melted away yet.
This was the snowy scenery on my way to work last Wednesday.

These are icicles forming on my coneflowers. I don't cut them back so the birds can eat them during the winter...but eventually they get covered with snow, here the ice formed a ball around the seeds, from the dripping icicles above.

Wow! We don't have that weather in MN yet. I'm not feeling ready for snow and ice, but I guess my preference is neither here nor there.
