Abbie sends her love too this morning. She's sneaking a nap right now but what a spoiled little furbaby she is.
I had a lovely dinner after work last night and she did give me one of her pouty looks for being late as usual but in 10 minutes, she was fine. She's my lumpasugar!
I love meeting new people all over through this blog. It's very dear to me and all your personal emails have been so sweet and I couldn't be more blessed to share a little of my journey with you! I just want to thank you for taking the time to visit Feathers in the Nest.

The coldest morning this year has been when I looked out the window and everything had turned ice white - not with snow - with frost. Jack had surely been a visiting. Even the roads were white with it. Bitterly cold. I am glad it is starting to warm up a bit now.
I am a follower and I would love a chance at your giveaway!

Hi, Hennifer. I posted about this wonderful drawing on my blog. Good luck to all that enter.
I am a follower and what a great and very useful giveaway.
The coldest morning here I think was minus 4 Celsius so not too bad.
My thrid post :)
I live in Claifornia about 30 miles south of San Fransisco. And while we don't get bone chilling temps or snow *thank god* I'm originally from Cleveland, Ohio, we do get some cold temps.
This "winter" has been pretty mild.As well as the rest of the U.S I think the worst day we had was back in November. It was Rainy ALL day, which my dogs hate :( The sun didnt shine for the ENTIRE day and the temps never got above 40.
I have become spoiled by the weather here, but it can never be warm enough for me. If I do have a hankering for some SNOW. I can just take a quick 3 hour drive up north to Lake Tahoe. Though this year the snow levels are quite low.
Thanks again for a cool drawing. Good luck to me LOL
What pretty scissors! Count me in! Our coldest morning here this winter was somewhere in the teens. It has been mostly mild this winter, so I can't complain! I am ready for spring though!!
Here's sending spring wishes to you in your neck of the woods, I too have cabin fever. I would love a chance at winning those sharp beauties. I envision a beautiful orange scissor fob dangling from one of the handles. Sounds summery!!! Smiles......
I am a follower. Abbie is a cutie and nappy is good, must get ther 20 hours a day of sleep in!! At least it seems dogs sleep that much, but with out any thumbs what else can they do?
I think we had a low so far this winter of zero, but I try not to remember those temps if I can help it!
I just posted a link to your giveaway on my blog www.acoloradostitcher.blogspot.com
Lovely giveaway, I would love to throw my name in for a chance at these beauties.
The coldest temperature we have had here in Clinton, IL has been 8 degrees. It has mostly been rather spring like most of the winter....weird!
Hi Jennifer....I love the scissors and would love to be part of the drawing. I also love your header....that is one of my favorite samplers from the Ssampler Girl but then again I love anything Jane Austen...grins...Abbie is such a dear little thing and just way to cute. Hope you are having a good day.
This winter has been pretty mild here in Southern CA. with very little rain. The coldest morning we have had was probably around 15 to 20 degrees F. I have had to cover my plants on the patio at night and the water in the bird bath was definitely frozen there for awhile.
Hello Jennifer. Beautiful little scissors. Count me in!
Hi Jennifer. I am already a follower. LOVE those scissors.

I am a follower and I thank you for such a wonderful giveaway.
Best always....
Here I am again....the coldest morning here in northwest GA....
I'd say around 20 degrees. No snow, though. However, it's not too late.
I'm sure some of you remember the Blizzard of '93!
Glad to see you are enjoying life!
I'm a happy follower and would love to enter your generous giveaway!
I'm in Florida so my coldest morning isn't anything by most standards. In the twenties and the sun managed to shine that day!
Jennifer I hope you're slump goes away soon! I'd love to be entered into your drawing for the scissors, how beautiful!
Would love a chance to win. Those scissors are beautiful.
The coldest morning here in Pennsylvania was about 20. But mostly we have had a very mild winter.
I would love a chance to win your giveaway. I have been a follower for a while now. I too have cabin fever and cannot wait for spring and things to start greening up again.
The coldest morning we have had in MA has been about 5 degrees. It has been a rather mild winter we had our only snow in October we were hit hard then and were withoug power and heat for a full week. The rest of the winter so far has been very mild for us, yet I am still longing for the spring.
I would love to have these beautiful scissors! My birthday is the 6th and they would be an awesome "gift". I just became a follower--your blog is wonderful.
I think the coldest it has been here in Cajun Country has been maybe 27. A very mild winter for us. I prefer it getting cold and staying there. Not this up and down.
Thank you for an opportunity to win these wonderful scissors.
Here in North Central Illinois, it's been a mild winter. Our coldest morning was last month with a temp of 3 above zero. It didn't last long though.
Please include me in your scissors give away! I'm already a follower. Years ago I opened the back door to see a raccoon right on the back step. Thank goodness for the storm door! I slammed the door shut before my dog could see it & go crazy. A 'possum & a raccoon in the same week would definitely freak me out. I don't have a blog so here's my email: ladybug8@bellsouth.net
I can understand the cabin fever. I do not like the winter. I am a follower for a long time. Thank you for a chance to win. Your furbaby always looks cute.
Long time follower! Such pretty scissors - they DO look like Spring.
Here in Minnesota it hasn't been a very cold or snowy winter - so not much to tell there.
Thanks for the opportunity,

I love those scissors! Thank you for a chance to win them, very generous. i am also a follower!
Our coldest morning so far has been.....-22 degrees. I'm not complaining, South Dakota has been much colder in previous years. This has been a mild one so far.
What a lovely giveaway! I would love a chance at the scissors. They are a lot of fun and I don't have these. The weather here has been very mild for winter. It's so strange! That Abbie is a cutie!
Hi Jennifer,
your little Abie is such too cute. As we have a much bigger dog making fun with us I can imagine how happy you are about Abbie.
I do enjoy looking at your blogg and I like your patterns.
Please count me in the giveaway. As I like the colour of the scissors so much.
Have a nice day

We have had a mild winter here in Arkansas so the low has only been in the lower 30's. It's already looking like spring here...high
60's today.
I sent you a pic of my fav freebie in an email.
Abbie looks so sweet and so do those scissors! I could use a pair~ love that color! thanks!
It was about 9 here in SE Michigan. Pretty mild winter over all! thanks again!
I'd love a chance at that beauty! I'm a follower.
Mostly we've been in the negative single digits (which is unbelievably warm for Winnipeg, and has everyone bracing for a horrendously hot summer, but I digress).
The coldest has been -20C with a windchill of about -30C. That was only a couple of days, though.
Jennifer, you are getting a great response to your giveaway! What a great pair of scissors! Beautiful color.
Please enter me along with the rest.
Thanks!

What lovely scissors! How generous of you to give them away. I enjoy following your blog.
I just posted about your lovely giveaway on my blog: http://stitchingnstashing.blogspot.com/
Here in New Hampshire we've had an exceptionally mild winter, but have had a few days when it was in the teens and 20's early in the morning.
Wow! Such a generous giveaway. I'm pretty sure I've been a follower for a while, but my computer is being weird so I can't check.
I always look forward to your updates and pictures of Abbie. I had a chow chow named Abby growing up, she was a great childhood dog.
This has been a crazy warm winter here in Indiana. I think we've had lows in the lower twenties just a couple of times, and I'm not sure we've gotten below that at all!
Today it was something like 50 degrees! I'm dreading this summer when all the bugs that weren't killed by a hard freeze are driving me batty.
Thanks again for the generous giveaway!

Another scissor lover (and follower!) here. Thanks so much for the chance :^)
I've posted about your draw on the sidebar of our blog.
Well, here in South-western Ontario, Canada we've had a pretty "mild" winter here compared to last year. I've only had to really bundle up while walking the dog only a few times (so far) this winter. I don't really pay that much attention to the actual temperature outside, so unfortunately I can't give you a number.
I've sent you a picture of one of your freebies that I stitched :^)
Entry No 1 - I've been a follower for a while and love these scissors, it's quite hard to get nice unusual scissors in the UK.
Entry No 2 - we've been below zero here in the UK this year. The temperature in our lounge was 13degrees C one morning.
Love the scissors!
Hi Jennifer,
I am glad your stitching Mojo is returning! The scissors look amazing. :)
Have a lovely evening,
