    Yes, everyone along the southeast coast stay safe. Luann, I am particularly concerned for those of you in parts of South Carolina. I heard you could have in excess of 12" rainfall in less than 24hrs on top of already saturated grown and creeks and rivers at their banks. The low country just can't manage that much more water. I think you should abandon your quilt frame and start building an ark. My prayers are with you!

      Good luck to those of you affected, I hope it gives you a miss. Take care

        What Wendy said, and get your valuables upstairs (that would be stash & sewing machines) for safety, or failing an up stairs, up high.

          The ark is starting to shake a bit,,, yikes!! Really, we'll be fine. If they would have said the hurricane was going to land here, you guys wouldn't have heard from me until I got to my kids house in the Midwest!! I'm not in any way, interested in 'riding one out',!!

          Thanks for your prayers, please include the public service workers that'll be called on to save those goofballs that think they can still go to the pub, have a snort full, and drive home thru the flooded ravines!

          May Jesus bless each of you with a week of pleasant weather,
          Luann

            Lois, it sure is the time of year for 'that' kind of weather. Hope the weather doesn't mess up everybody's plans for Houston this year?
            I hope your area is spared.

                I wanted to show what I finished in August. It is a portrait quilt from the Lea McComas class. I had made one last fall for one of my cousins. She loved it and had to keep it hidden all this time until I finished this one for her sister. The portrait is of their mother. I had forgotten to takes pictures of the first one so they may be a little different. Here is the finished quilt:

                Here is the quilt by the posterized picture:


                The finished quilt is small, only 8x10 inches. I wanted her to be able to frame it if she wanted. I did get a blue ribbon in the county fair for this.

                  You've made a great quilt and captured your cousins mother wonderfully. Bet she cries when she sees it.

                    Thanks Wendy. Her sister did, when she got her's for Christmas. Only problem now is, I am one of 35 first cousins on this side of the family. I have a feeling I will have to do more. These two have two brothers too. I don't know if the would be interested or not, but I do know some girl cousins who will want one of their mother too. Maybe each family can keep it secret until I have one done for all in that specific family. Grandma had 11 children so that means a lot of little quilts! I love my cousins, so I will be happy to surprise them.
