    Two sets finished, and a third set started. Maybe I can make a fourth set as well. I'm glad the embroidery machine can run semi-unattended, 'cuz I made a doll quilt at the same time I was embroidering! LOL!

    Will do! I didn't get to work on anything last night. We had some nasty storms come through. DH was at work, and all the vehicles in the parking lot got hammered by golfball-size hail. He'll be contacting the insurance company this morning. Fun, fun, fun. I was at home by myself, and it got pretty bad here too, but there was no significant damage. I pretty much hid in the bathroom all night. On the good side, when I had to "go", I was already there! Hopefully I can work on my blocks again early next week.

    I am just glad that you are ok moonrise! That was some nasty storms that went through your area. I have relatives in chattanooga and very very near the kentucky worst hit areas. Thank the lord that there hasn't been anyone in my family hit so far.

    Take good care... You hear?

    Four sets done! I just need to iron them and square them up. I'll post pics as soon as I can.

    The insurance company totaled Robert's truck. There was just too much damage to feasibly repair. I'm not sure yet if we're going to just take book value on it and replace it completely, or "buy it back" as salvage from the insurance company, repair the side mirrors (miraculously the only critical things that were damaged), and use the rest of the money to buy a second vehicle, which we badly need. It all depends on if they'll still let us insure it for collision and injuries, in case (heaven forbid) there's an accident in the future. Not sure how all that works. We've got a call in to the insurance agent, though, to discuss it. So far they've been very helpful.

    Here we go. Pardon the wrinkles. I haven't ironed them or squared them up yet.The pieced blocks with the canning jars are 12-1/2". The others will be 6-1/2" unless I add borders to them (haven't decided yet). I tried to go with a "retro" look.
