Highlighted above are just a few of our collected ornaments &#8212; hand-made or purchased. \u00a0The stout branches on this year&#8217;s pine allowed me to pull out heavier ornaments that aren&#8217;t well supported by lighter-weight evergreens. \u00a0There is always at least one ornament on the floor every morning.<\/p>\n<p>I started working on a new project. While in the Midwest on the two trips in May and October, I noticed &#8220;quilting squares&#8221; on the sides of barns in the countryside drives we took. \u00a0I&#8217;m working on my own version of a quilting square for our garage, to go up when the holiday lights come down. \u00a0Looking at my quilting square will bolster my spirits during the coming days of Winter.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_6072\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.appleattic.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/BarnQuiltSquare.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6072\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-6072\" src=\"http:\/\/www.appleattic.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/BarnQuiltSquare-300x228.png\" alt=\"Barn with painted quilt square\" width=\"300\" height=\"228\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.appleattic.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/BarnQuiltSquare-300x228.png 300w, https:\/\/www.appleattic.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/BarnQuiltSquare.png 447w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-6072\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Barn with painted quilt square (Shutterstock image)<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Where are your holiday cards, people?!
