Four heart blocks from Canada

My three quilt ladies who come here every Wed. morning to quilt/sew were met at the front door with.....having prepped one already who brought the necessary fabric, tools, etc......do you want to make a whole quilt or just one block. So, four small heart blocks will go into the mail from Ontario, Canada this afternoon for New Zealand and Shirley Goodwin's project mentioned by Fran below. It is a very tiny contribution to some child's Christmas which in no way will ever make up for the terrible losses faced by the families of miners. I'm sitting on the packet now squashing the air out of it. Believe me, that's a very big squash!!

Grey, drizzly day here and the part of winter no-one likes. Snow makes things look pretty and clean. We have hints of snow tucked in and around the bushes and long grasses but otherwise, we're looking at freezing rain, which makes driving treacherous. A good day to stay home, which I'm not doing unfortunately. The only thing that makes our winter more bearable this year is knowing that Vancouver Island has had more than it's share of snow before us, which is rare in itself. Even more rare, Jean can't crow about her fine weather out there. She starts having daffodils in February out on the west coast of Canada. Go figure. She's a whole lot further north in the hemisphere than we are here in Ontario but she has a 'stream'...not the Gulf Stream...flowing by Vancouver Island......which makes the weather temperate there....what 'stream' is it, Jean?
