Thanks again, Bonnie. I used the pantograph "Twister" by Urban Elementz on both of them and really like how they looked on both quilts...kind of wavy like..

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.

Pet, you're in my thoughts in these fiery times. I have friends in Louisiana who got hit hard by Laura, & now here comes Sally! Opposite problems, but both disasters.

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.

Petthefabric, my prayers are with you

Conchalea, you and K are doing some amazing work, please continue on

Stay safe everyone

The comfort quilt lady just informed us that the guild is collecting for the fire victims. So when I get home, off they go. Air quality still too bad to breath, so waiting a little longer.
