No... I got it from Nancy Zieman's blog: http://www.nancyzieman.com/blog/quil...love-the-dove/
It was shared with her by Stephanie Kepecs and Joanne Perlmutter of devoutquilter.com

Just checking in. Still waiting for new baby. Dr said ONE MORE WEEK. We were all geared for this weekend. I managed to mail August bday candy the other day. Now I'm working on new baby boy quilts. We have a tradition of making a mini of each for the car or siblings. So in total, 9. 3 minkes to edge. And we threw in an extra for our new 1st graders teacher who is also due right now. AND she's wanting me to make her a southwestern mobile. I'm ordering wool for that!!

Mailing August birthday candies in the Morning. They should make it in 6 days.
We are being inundated with travelers here for the eclipse. It will pass over my house in totality, we are on the northern edge. This should be an awesome sight. Hope some of you are in the path also.

Candy's are mailed. Just waiting for confirmation they were received.
I'm looking forward to Monday.�� I plan to sit on my deck and watch the entire eclipse from start to finish This is one time I hope the weather man is wrong. Forecast partly cloudy. Showers are expected some time that day. He is just not stating the exact timing of the showers yet. We are also in the window of totality. It's a big thing, with many schools cancelling so students can be home with their parents. During a seminar I went to, we were told to stay home. They are expecting lot of visitors, and roads could be congested. We were also told to pack emergency items in case we get stuck in a traffic jam if we have go out. I'm just amazed with all of the planning the cities around have been doing for 1- several years for this event. It's really a big thing here. Many cities have scheduled activities for 2-3 days to increase revenue. Several Hotels have been booked solid for over a year, now all hotels are booked. It's going to be interesting.
