What else can you do when surrounded by water - quilt, of course!
'Miss Betty & I' have been busy trying to get ALL caught up in time for ALL the May festivities. And we've made a fairly good dent on our accumulated quilts.
This is our latest Finish!
 |
| QOV to be awarded to a very special Navy Veteran |
 |
| Getting ready to quilt! |
 |
| Becker's Shooting Star Panto w/Gold thread really works on this quilt! |
Weather and 'other' challenges have tried to slow us down from time to time BUT, we're committed to getting to the quilting finish line, even during a major area flood!
UPDATE 5/5/2017 - Flood stages have been updated to include latest rainfall. Currently at 25.4' and projected to go to 26.1' by Midnight, when we are expecting MORE rain! Flood stage is 14.0' - we will be more than 12.0'+ over that:

High ground flooding of one of our fields across from my quilting studio,
taken from second level studio window |
And seep water has even reached our home - you may not be able to tell it but, there's a frog in the lower right-hand corner of this pic, swimming in the water underneath our house!
 |
Water under our house in the crawl space -
so much for previously installed sump pump! |
In the meantime, we have quilts to bind!
 |
| Binding a QOV |
 |
| First side is 'almost' sewn... |
Just two more to go to finish up for today!
Stay High & Dry EVERYONE! (...as my quilting friend, Julia recommended to me earlier ;-)
