Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow today and as legend holds, that mean six additional weeks of winter. Phil was awakened at 7:25 a.m. and made his prediction in front of about 16 members of the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club at Gobbler's Knob. Since our winter here in northern Ohio, has been extremely mild, I hope it gets no worse. We did not get hit with as much snow as predicted ~ maybe 4"-5" is on the ground. NOTHING like states east of me. Do you feel like you are living in "Groundhog Day"?…

I just finished hooking my latest rug. Inspiration from birds with crowns. I guess they could be queens but usually in the animal kingdom its the males that are colorful. I add beads for the eyes and the tops of the crowns. Here is more detail of the bird. I added the heart to draw the branches together. I am not a heart person so this was out of my norm, however it gives a Pennsylvanian Dutch look touch to the rug. I really had fun with the border I almost scraped the idea when I started…
