Abigail's Scrappy Tumbler Quilt

I have just receive a call from Abigail (one of my granddaughters) telling me her beautiful quilt has arrived at her home in CT. She is a college student and she has waited and waited for this day. Even though the temps in CT aren't right for a quilt she and my daughter Christine were curled up together watching their favorite mystery.

I made this scrappy tumbler quilt from those quarters some of us buy at every quilt show we go to from here South, East and North. I don't do much going West.

Have to get back now to fighting off the water in my lower living area. I think it will be some time before the water stops coming in and then drying out before I can think about my next quilting project.

Just wanted to share this great news about the quilt.

Hey Rhoda,

No better news than hearing a quilt has been received and is being enjoyed! A beautiful quilt. (I enjoyed the other quilts on your pages too!)

Are you in the Red River flood area? Yikes!

Hoping for some dry weather for you.... Michelle in NV

I don't want to be a whiner, but my quilt room and lower living room, etc. is allowing a tributary of the Buffalo River to come in and ruin my winter project of re-docorating my entire lower living level. We are coping. The red river is west of our town about 20+ miles.

I don't consider it whining at all! I wish I could be there to help you mop it up and/or stop the flow or even just to shake my head with you - whatever you might need. I do hope the invasion is over before long!

Hi Rhoda,

Sheesh! You are more than entitled to whine. That has to be very tough. Keep hanging in there!

Whining? Whining? I think you should be shouting your dismay to everyone! Of course it won't change anything....but don't keep your frustrations in! It's not good for you. I hope this is over soon!

Oh Rhoda! I'm so sorry you are suffering this way! Will you need emergency stash infusions? We can help.

I waited to post until I had all the reminisce of the Buffalo River soaked up from the lower living level. I do have to report that it ruined the asphalt tiling throughout, but I determined that I would make all else perfectly livable first. That being done, I decided to put down some washable large rug in the living room part and the exercise room. The rest I have scrubbed, cleaned and waxed and all will be well. I have laid out some "possible materials" for the next hopeful project....and am looking atsome of my favorite patterns.
