I thing the sound of the sewing machine makes me relax and then the plus is that I am getting something made. I hope your repairs go smoothly.Gari in ALhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07695711731891676422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5409545905735011881.post-91813339339556960552015-04-20T19:38:51.864-05:002015-04-20T19:38:51.864-05:00I love the quilting in exile story,made me smile t...I love the quilting in exile story,made me smile tonight! Ok I looked at safari stars and I can't believe those string blocks are left overs from that one. Both are equally stunning. That HS quilt really grabbed my eye, it's a beauty! At least you're not exiled in Siberia, I hear the snow is North of us tonight!! Hope the flooring gets installed soon.

It's unfortunate that you're banished from your studio while repairs are being made, but I'm glad you had the opportunity to assemble supplies and materials so you can keep stitching in the meantime. I'm getting over a broken collar bone and broken thumb currently and I wish I had known I was going to hurt myself in advance. Then I could have made myself an Invalid Quilter Kit so I could at least get some machine piecing done. No way I can use a rotary cutter safely, let alone accurately, with my right arm in a sling and a splint on my left thumb! Of course, if I knew ahead of time that I would fall on my bike that day, I would have stayed home and spent the day sewing instead... :-)Rebecca Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14801489818836195754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5409545905735011881.post-17385958602117257942015-04-20T09:40:38.421-05:002015-04-20T09:40:38.421-05:00so nice to have a niche in your exile.

Just curious. I admire your determination on those quilts. And, 8 yards of fabric. YEEE Haw!

Such a big job for those workers and your organization was a huge help. I bet they tell your story in the future. Good luck with the next steps. You'll be back in your space in no time.

Thanks for the progress photos, the process is as fascinating as any train wreck, you hafta look.<br />Your sewing projects look like great fun to keep your mind filled with colors and patterns rather than problems.
