Gorgeous Weather





What beautiful weather we have been having after a very wet weekend when Hurrican Ike made it's way through Michigan. Lots of places really got lots and lots of rain - I think there was about 3 inches total here in Midland. The last couple of days have really been nice - just the great kind of weather autumn brings.


Will post a few pictures of some small quilts I have made using the reproduction fabrics from the 30's and 40's. There are three of these small pieces and one day they could go to future greatgrandchildren. As I have noted before, I really enjoy using the Aunt Gracie fabrics - they are such pretty colors and darling prints. First one up will be a paperpieced one that I think is called sawblades. The next one is machine buttonhole stitched flowers connected with green vines. Third is one with sunbonnet children and an alphabet and number border.
