Rain, rain, rain

We have had more than our share of rain. We have had over 28" of rain since the 1st of April. From the beginning of the year until now, we have had the wettest year on record thus far and yes, you guessed it. It is thundering and lightening now. It is very dark and the rain cannot be far behind. Fortunately, we have never been in any danger of having our property flooded.

I'm in the mood to quilt, quilt, quilt. My last post was telling of my excitement over taking the Double Wedding Ring Quilt. The project for the class was a tablerunner. I knew that I didn't want to make a tablerunner. So, I decided to make a baby quilt for my great niece, Natalee. Of course, I need more fabric. I need to make a run to the store as soon as it opens. I haven't been able to quilt due to health issues. Now that I'm starting to have what appears to be a "good spell," I want to work on her quilt, even if the spell only lasts for a day or a few hours.

When I feel good for a period of time, I not only want to quilt, I want to buy fabric for future projects. My local quilt shop is having a sale to celebrate the shop's birthday. Also, one of my very favorite online shops This -n That is celebrating a birthday with a sale. I want to buy, buy, buy from there! Imagine that! I have a hot link to the right for the online shop!!! Hint, hint, hint! I believe in sharing the good news.

Hope everyone enjoys creating with his/her craft of choice.
