Drenched in the South
Nothing like being homebound in a rain storm. This tropical thing has been sitting upon us for quite a while and we are homebound because of high water, Thankfully our homes are sitting high and dry but many neighborhoods aren't so lucky. My husband is chomping at the bit to make a big pot of gumbo. I, on the other hand have been stitching away. I had pieced 100 Mountain Majesties blocks and had them organized to be stitched together. Well the first day of the rain, I sewed my rows together. Yesterday I pressed the joining seams open. To avoid burned fingers, I used the little Clover ironing tool (not sure what it's called). Watching the Olympics at the same time made the time and the work fly by. Today I need to do some trimming and then begin the assembly of rows. Sure would like to know what other Cajun country quilters are doing while staying out of the rain. Hope none of you are flooded out.
