It truly has been a long month!
A week of Arctic weather was more than enough. And that is the reason bears hibernate! Indoor life was fine and there were more than enough options to keep busy.........
Our resident Anna's hummingbirds survived the extreme cold. Feeders were kept insulated as best we could.
On rare moments, brightness in the sky..sunshine, I remember you sunshine .... and then gone again.
Australia needs help in so many ways. I found a link to a Quilt Guild that is making quilts for fire victims. With the theme Trees, I made a pattern and then working from fabric stash did some hand applique. Not fancy but heart felt. They're now on their way to Oz.
Postage to send joey pouches and the like is way too much so we've opted to send a money donation. The Koala Hospital Port Macquarrie NSW has a good website and info.

The white turtles are Clun Forest. It's one of the wool types I'll spin as part of a breed study with our Ravelry Jenkins spindle group. On my meet the sheep list I've eight to try....
And for fun (using up some spun bits and pieces) knitted and crocheted bags. They're a perfect size to hold an empty gelato container. And emptying that container......pure bliss!
and that's a wrap for January 2020!
