Here is 3 more pictures..One is of my quilt..I may sew another 2-1/2" around the out side yet..Not really sure..Just thinking to my self on that option.. The other 2 pictures are of the flooding that we are going thru.. Not as bad as Col. Junction, or of some of the near by town's.. There is a town, called Oakville, that is totally engulfed by the river completely.It's roughly a 30-45 min., drive from Muscatine, where I live..Anyhow everyone take care.. Don-isewman1

Another picture of the water..The roadway is a 4 way street. 2 in one direction, and 2 the other way.They (the DOT) have cut off alot of highways.. It's making it hard for people to get where they need to go..

More or less the complete quilt top done.I may eventually sew a 2 1/2"strip around it..Not sure yet

This is some of flooding that is going on in our area.. They tell us there is 5-6 ft of water around the building in the picture.

Don you do amazing work. I love that quilt. I hope that the rain stops soon and that you can dry out. We also have had a lot of flooding here in Missouri.

Don, your quilt is wonderful! I love that block, especially how you used it with the white background. Great job!
