Unfortunately we do have snow in the UK but not too much mostly in the Midlands. I would like to make a snowman with my granddaughter who lives in Derbyshire but I dont drive so by the time I could get there by train (I live in Coventry) it will have probably disappeared. One day maybe she will be visiting when it snows and I will get to complete my dream.

Sowing Stitches said...

hahahahahhaaaaaa :) Can't believe you asked.... :) Why I quilt of course while watching old movies drinking cocoa as I happily sew the snow away! :)

usagypsy said...

Not many snow days now here in Nevada. But when I lived in Alaska there were plenty! After shoveling and playing with the dogs in the snow we would make hot chocolate and wrap in blankets to warm up. Then we might have baked cookies or spent a quiet afternoon reading or TV and for me of course crafting.

usagypsy said...

I love your Plus Plus.

Barb in Mi said...

My vote is for your helix quilt pattern - thank you!

Most fun on a snow day is dress warmly and be out with the kids taking a walk and playing in the snow. You've had a lot of snow recently, haven' you?
Thanks for the chance.

Deb (Two Cheeky Monkeys) said...

I don't live where it snows, but probably make a snowman if I did!

Mike Pearson said...

Stay inside and sew sew sew haha

Gene Black said...

Depending on how I feel and what type of snow it is: I may go out and be a little boy reveling in the new snow OR i may just snuggle up in a quilt and read.

Anne said...

I am mesmerized by the beauty of the falling snow. The flakes just fall upon us, blanketing the world, sending it all in to a little hush. The white brightens up an otherwise gray sky. I always enjoy seeing the bright blue sky after the storm has cleared. The sun shines on all the whiteness. Magnificent.

Anonymous said...

I'd go snowboarding if the roads were cleared, or I'd work on one of my quilts-in-progress accompanied by some hot chocolate and a radio for company. -- soparkaveataoldotcom

Anne said...

I still like the Plus Plus quilt. My eyes are drawn to it.

Judy H said...

love the chevron baby quilt

Andrea said...

Well the first thing I do is go out and take pictures of all the beautiful snow on our six acres of property. Then I'd stay indoors sewing/quilting while listening to a good book on cd and keeping my fire going while drinking tea and eating double chocolate muffins. Yum! And I'd make sure I looked out the windows frequently at all that snow since it's so infrequent.

Andrea said...

I love your Plus Plus quilt pattern. Thanks for your giveaway

Sherry VF said...

After shoveling (or blowing) off the driveway, I'd wait until the evening and shop because no one is out when the roads are snow covered. svonfumetti at yahoo dot com

The orange and grey helix is gorgeous, and would make a wonderful gift for my god-son. May I have a copy please? This is such a lovely offer - thank you, and Merry Christmas

Unknown said...

I think it has only ever snowed in my home town 6-7 times that I remember, and having snowball fights was the best we could manage with the little there was. It was great fun :)

Sallie said...

Stay inside, with fire going, and drinking hot tea.

Sallie said...

Orange and Gray Helix - thanks for the giveaway!

Allison said...

It's a bit lame, but I like to just sit inside and look at it while I drink hot cocoa!

michelle @ sewnhenge said...

Honestly, I'd love to just be lazy and watch tv in my pajamas all day, with some sewing thrown in :) But alas, that will never happen since I live in TX so there will never be snow and have children so I can never be lazy. HA!

Unknown said...

When I lived in Seattle, where it does snow, I use to love to cuddle up in a quilt in front of a fire and read or sew and just relax. Now that I'm retired ans living in Mexico, I would probably go out and play in it because we haven't had any snow in the 4 years we have been here.

For my second entry I had an enjoyable hop over to etsy to look at your fab patternds! I really like the helix and if you don't mind sending a copy that'd be awesome! I fancy making it using the colours you have in the pillowcase version. I can see myself giving the Windows and Colour Blast quilts a try too! :)

Dawn said...

No snow days here in Houston, but when I was growing up in KS and we had snow days we play outside, make snow angels, but be sure to keep an area fresh so when we were ready to go in we would get several huge bowls of fresh snow and make snow ice cream. It was fabulous!!

ThreadCatcher said...

I'm all for staying inside and sewing up a storm with the occasional break for hot chocolate or soup. Many chances for that here in Minnesota!

Michele T said...

Hi Richard, We get plenty of snow here in Alberta and do not have snow days. It gets fairly cold ( we have had a big cold spell recently with a week of inside recess because the weather was too inclement to go outside.
The schools remain open even when the schoolbuses don't run.
Thanks for participating in the blog hop- it is always fun.

we dont get much snow here in this part of Texas I can recall maybe three years ago was the first time I had ever seen sooo mmuucch snow here, but usually.. if it does get cold and icy last the past week.. I like tos tay in and sew, or hang out and play legos with my children.

Kirsten said...

Snow day = watching a series, reading a book, or browsing the net. With tea. Earl Grey to be exact.

Sangeetha said...

knit, watch movies

Jodi said...

Snow days do not happen on the East Coast of Australia. Heck I don't think they have "Snow Days" in the Snowy Mountains in Australia when it does snow. We do have "flood days" where children don't come in because the school bus can't cross flooded cause ways or low bridges. I lived in town so that didn't apply to me. Some schools have had Fire danger days - where Catastrophic fire conditions combined with fires already burning make it to dangerous to go to school. Never had one of these either.

pennydog said...

I stay in and sew! Though we usually trek to the supermarket with the dog and pretend to be Arctic explorers and fill up our backpacks just in case ;)

Wendy said...

it doesn't happen over here very often, so once I've made sure the bunnies are safe, warm and protected, I'd sit infront of the TV with some coffee and hand sewing

Born4Travel said...

Build up a nice fire, grab a book and a cup of tea and stay inside. :) Thanks for the chance to win!

here we've snow almost never. So if we're lucky and get a few we go to the mountains to play with it. 2 years ago it snowed in the city, it was wonderful!
thanks!

Stephanie said...

I like to sit inside and drink tea.

greeblygreebly said...

My favorite thing to do on a snow day is to laze around with the kids baking and drinking cocoa and enjoying how warm we are in the house. :) When we lived in a snowier climate my favorite thing to do was to get together with friends and huddle around drinking cocoa out of a thermos and chatting while our kids went sledding.

greeblygreebly said...

Your orange and grey helix is my favorite. Very cool and different plus I really like the color combo.

Snow, what's snow? I live in Florida! Ok, it did snow Christmas of 1989...no one up north would have noticed but we did! The kids got all bundled up and played in the snow for several hours. When they got up the next morning there was no sign of it. So playing in the snow is a real treat for a Florida kid!

Yay snow day! Stay in my jammies, watch movies with the hubby!

Well, depends on what kind of snow it is and how bad the wind is blowing. If it is a nice gentle snow, I love to go for a walk in it. If it is too windy and icy, I like to stay inside and cuddle in a quilt.

At our house, if it's a snow day that means that we have no Dish TV. Which means I spend a little more time talking to my husband, which always leads to a new project. All our projects either start on a snow day or on a long drive..

On a snow day, I'd do what I do most other days - sew! If there were no electricity, I'd do hand embroidery or drag out the hand crank. It sounds lovely to me - no one could call and want me to go anywhere, because I'd be snowed in!

a snow day is a perfect day to put soup in the slow cooker and read a good book or put my pedal to the metal and sew.
I am still debating whether I will stay home this evening and sew or go to a potluck and visit some quilty friends.
Snowy driving can be challenging.

I live in Queensland Australia, it doesn't snow here but if I ever was somewhere and it was snowing I think I would have to run around in it and build snowmen and generally act like a kid in a lolly shop.

We usually watch a Christmas movie, make some cookies and hot chocolate.

Holly U said...

As a work at home mom, I'm sorry to say that a snow day for my son is still a work day for me! But one of these days I'm going to take him sledding. Thanks!

Susan said...

I also live in Queensland, Australia. Apparently a few flakes fell here one year, but melted as soon as they got near the ground.
I think an open fire and hot drinks would be good on a snow day.
