Design wall - and a little catch up

Last you heard from me - we were wet!!! And sadly the destruction only got worse! In our community there was a lot of loss, but a lot of rejoicing too - as we found out what could be saved, and what could be cleaned. One of our friends had flooding under his house - it was so strange to see... another lost theirs.

But on a good note - we have a great community - and lots of us spent the majority of the weekend doing clean up. And salvaging, and realizing how blessed we are.....

And then - I ran home- took a shower - and headed to our Quilt of Valor sew day. I was so tickled that so many showed up - because you all... it is NOT easy to get to town....

We had some new QOV'ers - it was so great to meet them - they joined right in, and didn't think we were crazy!! It was great!!

We put together 6 tops from the BLOCK DRIVE  - and had a grand old time! It was actually quite relaxing after our weekend!!

    Cannot wait to see the six your group assembled. I love this one. Just how many ways can you turn those red/white/blue blocks!

    Glad you came through the flood ok. Those QOV blocks look good and I'm anxious to see how you arrange more. I plan to get my 20 blocks on their way to you this week.

    It's wonderful to see a community pull together and help one another. The QOV blocks are really going great! Looking forward to seeing the pictures of the finished ones.
