Winter wonderland...

Late last night it began to snow...and when Viktor woke up he was sooo HAPPY... :)

All white and COLD...
-7 C ( 19F) today and I´m not ready for this...
Guess this will melt away and more will come...or not...maybe we will have a cold and early winter this year.....
One thing is good though... it is light and fresh ... not black and rainy and dirty...
...and my turtle week keep on going...not much more speed here...
In a crazy moment I started out a new little cross stitch...a little sampler...
..I know I´m not finished with the first... I just had to try out how tiny I can sew with my new glasses... ;)
So this is 25 count linen and sewed over 1 thread...it is sooo cute...but TINY!!! :)
And I can see it...so I guess my new glasses is rather good... except for a little problem I had yesterday...
Hmmm...
They have the little peculiarity that they will go down on the nose and I dont like that...so yesterday they were going to shorten the frame...
And what happends...???
They broke them!!!
So now I have another pair... in another colour (black and purple instead of black and green)...
And I might need to get another pair because they can´t fix the little peculiarity at the glasses!!
Or maybe its my my nose that needs some fixing...lol...
So I´m back on zero with my glasses!!
Hope not...

    Oh the cross stitch is nice:) Good luck with your glasses. I have worn glasses since I was in 3rd grade and the teachers always use to push up my glasses because I didn't have a bump in my nose to keep them up. They tease me and say I have a ski jump nose. hehehe...doesn't work so good with glasses. I hope you get them working ok.

    BBBbrrrr -7 sounds way to cold, we only get down to 0 here in winter, that's chilly enough for me. Love the wee cross stitches, pretty colours. Good luck finding some glasses that do their job without sliding down your nose :-)

    That snow looks beautiful! I know it must be so cold but it looks so pretty! I think I will need a magnifying glass to look at those tiny stitches too!

    Fresh snow is always so beautiful - everything crisp and white. Your new cross stitch does look tiny but that first bit is very sweet. I'm in denial on glasses in the first place. Should wear them all the time but I don't so I'm forever putting them on top of my head when I don't want them on - then they get a bit stretched - so now I need to get them tightened up a bit. Maybe my head is to big, LOL.

    Hugs - karen

    Beautiful pictures. I like the first snow and after than I'd rather not have any. Too cold for me. I might not survive if I lived in Sweden!

    Your snow pictures are beautiful. We don't have snow where I live. I don't like cold weather but I do like to see snow once in a while.

    My, but your cross stitch project stitches are tiny! What is the design to be?

    Snow! Beautiful! And beautiful photos!
    Glasses, I've tried to get used to my new progressive glasses over the last three months, with no great luck, so now it's on to trying another kind of glasses!
    Good luck with yours!

    Hi Stina,
    The snow looks so pretty but I know it must be very cold. I havent done crossstitch in ages but just bought myself some cloth to start a pattern I have had for years.I think the display of crosstitches framed at the craft fair got me all inspired.
    Keep warm JO

    Lucky you living where it snows, I have only experienced real snow in Queenstown, New Zealand in 2006 when our daughters were living there... we loved it.. can't wait to go back. I think you must have dicky glasses it can't possibly be your nose.. love those teensy-weensy stitches they always look perfect but I need newer stronger glasses to do them... thank heavens for magnifiers...
