On the quilting front, I don't want to start a big project until after the storm. Last night I did look at what I have to make the last quilt for the secret art project this year, and decided on this stack of fabrics from a scrap box I bought off Etsy (pic #1). The colors have a lovely soft old-manor feel to them, so I added a vintage wine print I had in my stash, plus what was left of the solid pomegranate fabric I used to make the back and binding for Katherine's quilt earlier this year (pic #2). I thought the solid would work better than black with these colors for this Secret Garden pattern I'd like to try (pic #3). It's made entirely from 2-1/2" strips so I think I can manage that.
Send good thoughts our way this weekend!

Beautiful colors! I do love muted colors in quilts. Not that the brilliant colors aren't beautiful, but I grew up with a lot of quilts and they were faded and worn and the muted colors just tend to bring back familiar memories.
You're on my prayer list. Take care this weekend and hoping it turns before it gets to you.
