Rainy Day

Good morning, We are getting lots of rain- about 6 inches in the last few days. Guess I shouldn't complain after the tragedy in Arkansas. I have been looking at pictures from our area where it washed culverts right out of roads. We have lived here for 16 years and this is the first time our drain pump has run. Most homes have basements.
My DD is still in the running for the accuquilt on http://www.bejeweledquilts.blogspot.com/ Sometimes she is ahead and then behind so I am hoping that anyone who reads this will go vote- you can vote everyday and there are 21 hours left to vote. She will have to bring it to my house and cut for me if she wins. Thanks for voting. My DD is call me crazy- please help.

Blocks


Today was our guild meeting and we exchanged the 13 blocks we made. There were 12 who participated and we each got 12 blocks- the 13th one will be made into a quilt and donated to a charity for a raffle. We all used the same focus fabric- we each bought one yard. I am anxious to get started on mine but have a few things to finish up first. Our guild is having our bi-annual quilt show July 24-25.

Memorial Day


Hope you had a nice Memorial Day and had time to stop and say a prayer for all our military- past, present and future. We are so fortunate to live in a country where we enjoy so many freedoms.

I washed one of my first quilts today and planned on taking a picture while it was on the clothesline. I draped it across 3 lines but we had a rain shower so I didn't get the best picture but will show it anyhow. I had to quickly get it in before it got wet again.

Pretty Quilt


Today I was quilting at our local senior center. We have a few that hand-quilt and the money helps support the center. This just happens to be my DD's quilt. ( Call me crazy) We usually have a quilt or 2 waiting. One of the ladies quilting today is 94 years old and does a really good job.
