Secrets from Louisiana

So glad you have stopped by for a visit. We have many secrets here in Louisiana. We are a quilters haven because of all the interesting things we have in our environment to see, smell,taste and feel. Our flowers are like perfume in the evening and the colors explode in your eyes. Our seafood is the best in the world and is bountiful from the Gulf.

The palette is non stopping.

Good morning

It has been a while since i wrote on my blog. Things have been crazy here in Louisiana. Two floods in less than 6 months.  Who would have thought that could have happens. My brother is in a safe place for another 18 months, thank God. Michael has gutted the almost completed house from the march flood. Now to do it all over again. What a job. There are sum other things going on, can't talk about them at present. Will posted as they develop.

Slow Day

You know I am never moving slowly but yesterday and today, this is slow mode. I am not happy about this. Hope tomorrow is better, not feeling bad just no get up and go.  Finished the sofa quilt this morning about 6:00am. You know I am a early riser. hahahaha  Things need to improve before the Hot Rod Power Tour we move fast this week long activity.

I am going to lay out a pink quilt using Frans blocks. Then a bath and sit and read and watch the voice.

Jackpot

Fran has moved on and doesn't have room for her quilting things. She sorted and gave 95% away or for me to donate about. She had enough blocks people had given her that I sorted and will have enough for 20 tops. WHOOHOO Gave away her whole stash , 2 giant totes of fat quarters and enough stuff to start a studio. She gave me an iron and a case, putting matt and ironing matt.  I won't have to cut a quilt till 2018

I will be bringing so many door prizes to Pomeroy, mailing them up to Rather Bees early. So show up it will be like shopping at Christmas.

Hugs, Patticake

We are going to a car show Saturday and I will be cleaning house Monday. Thats all I have planned. So Sunday i can cook for the week. Going to a lot of salads.
