  1. The fires are still burning? Wow. We don't hear about that so much here in the states unless it is near a city and we have them going on too.

    Mostly we have blizzards, in the Al Gore Global Warming Fiasco. They make the news!

  5. I like your idea of little buckets to wash you feet before getting into the car, Maria. You're going to be busy looking by the UFO bags but then again, you are always busy sewing! LOL! Can't wait to seeing your spotty quilts!

  11. 550 little squares - that is tedious bit its done. Those UFO lists can get scary too...Good Luck finishing them and not starting too many more new things in the process (always my downfall)

  18. Hi Maria, you have some interesting looking packs there, I love the look of the Goodnight Irene, good luck with that, not that you will need it!
    I saw that Sparkle quilt pattern on a website, but they had sold out, I will be keenly watching yours come together with those gorgeous fabrics... x
