Still evacuated. House still OK. Maybe back home on Wednesday. I've a stack of log cabin quilts (#?) made for a different fire that will be donated to this fire's victims. And I'll finish up the ones that were stacked, unquilted and out they go.
The day before evac, took 8 quilts to the comfort quilts lady. Some day my stash will look manageable.

K just completed the binding on our 2nd UFO finish for September. The first was just a lot of blocks that had similar colors, but were all loose. We added fabric to some, trimmed & evened them up, then added blue sashing & put them into a top. It rained a lot last weekend & then we both had other things to do, so no pictures. The UFO for today was a completed top but we had to piece the back. We used 2 other blocks that coordinated with the front, so we're using up the blocks that aren't part of a quilt. We have 2 tops left plus a few more loose blocks. K insists she doesn't want to piece blocks, but I showed her string blocks & she's enthusiastic about those. So we may have a string quilt in the near future.

Good morning everyone, no I have not fell off the edge of the earth and I'm still around lurking in UFO world, right I haven't touch those aprons in a few weeks. But, I did start in on stripping my original sewing machine cabinet, using manual tools (my hands, back and knees). I haven't got it to a stage where I can't restore it yet.
