Sunrise

Sunrise this morning was beautiful. The sky was orange and pink all over. My camera didn't do a great job of capturing the colours:

Back in January I dug out my Celtic Solstice quilt which had been untouched for almost 3 years. I did a bit of quilting through January between Frolic clues, but then Mum had her accident and since then I have not touched it. Until today. I think I am out of practice, because this happened, twice:

After the first time I replaced the needle, and tightened the screw that holds it in place as tight as I could. But then it happened again, so I don't know what was going on.

One Minute More

It is not the equinox for a few more days, but look at the sunrise and sunset times on the weather station today:

I don't know exactly how that works, but today we apparently had 12 hours and 1 minute of day, and 11 hours and 59 minutes of night. What will we get on the equinox, then?

Pretty sky this morning.

Morning

When the curtains opened this morning I saw black clouds looking threatening.

A minute later the sun made them beautiful.

Later in the day there was pouring rain and cold wind, but for a few moments the sky was lovely.
