Sorry for my blog absence… I‘ve received lots of emails wondering if I was OK. Other than a little upset tummy on Friday, I have been fine.  We had a major storm blow through the State of Michigan , and the area where I live had what some are calling the “Hundred Year Flood.”  Schools all through our county (Genesee) were closed Friday, and because of my icky tummy I was up all night watching the lightening and listening to the rain and hail beat on our house. 

I took the photo below around the corner from my house.  This yard sits next to a small creek, that flooded up hill into the yard almost to the driveway.

I opted to stay home on Friday, catch up on sleep, and work on our quilt.  I’ve tried to stay away from the computer as much as possible lately  and focus more time on finishing the quilting.  The photos below show more completions, but it isn’t finished yet!
