Been having a bit of hassle at work recently, which has been putting me off my stride, but things are starting to look up again.

- Brenda - I'm so sorry to hear of your flooding. Hope everything's going ok today. I know clean up can be a long process.
- Kathy - did you receive my row? The post office said it was delivered but now I'm worrying that it went to the wrong home! If you didn't get it let me know. I'll have to make another!
- Barb- I finished my April row and I'm really excited to see how my experiment worked out! Hope you like it! I'll get it in the mail this week (probably tomorrow). I'll let you know if I don't make it

-Jen looking forward to the row! Barb

fabrikath OFFLINE Posts: 81 Thank you received: 28	Oh dear, oh dear...Yes, Jennifer, I did receive your wonderful row in good time. And then my sieve of a brain went into non-action and I forgot to let you know. I love everything about the row, and in particular that your young son helped with the design! Thank you so much. Picture to follow eventually. Kath

lorra OFFLINE Posts: 962 Thank you received: 122	Brenda, so sorry to hear about the flooding. I am glad you were able to save so much. Did you lose your vintage patterns? On the bright side, just think about the nicely organized sewing room you will have when you are finished the repairs. Maybe you can find something in Paducah to make up for some of your lose. Have fun at the show.

Brenda: so sorry about that flooding - what a mess - so glad the insurance is up to date and none of the electronics were damaged. concentrate on getting your home reorganized the way you want it to be and and don't forget to take a breather and treat yourself once in a while in between! better be a little longer but can enjoy it properly after!

Dawn: now worries... have fun with your Hoffman Challenge and also don't forget to treat yourself to a little time off in between.
we can easily wait!!!

big hugs and smiles to all
no sewing in a long time - but i managed to take part in a makro-course and finally visited the bears and lynx last saturday ... there will hopefully be a blog on my website within a week or so

Rosemary, Geneva and Lotti.............I have made a decision to postpone the making of the rows for you three until July. My Hoffman Challenge is coming along, but ever so slowly, and I want to make sure it makes the deadline. I would rather have fun with your rows, and enjoy the process, and not have to rush through them just to be on time! Whew! Now I can focus on my challenge. Fortunately, I have known all three of you for many years, and know you understand.

Brenda, oh my! I feel so badly for you! What a bummer! I'm glad you have flood insurance, but I know it's still a pain in the neck to have to deal with that. I see you are drowning your sorrows in Padukah, though! Say "Hello" to Robin for me, and have a wonderful time!

Oh, and I'm still loving looking at all of the rows you are posting! We are such a talented group!

Oh my goodness you guys. The rain, thunder and lightening were intense last night so I didn't get much sleep. At 4:30 this morning the water was on my front porch, but the rain was slowing down. At 7:00 the water had receded, at 8:30 the power was on and I thought we had dodged a big bullet. There is flooding all around us, the creek is at the bottom of the bridges and still rising, so there is no where to go. What would any good quilter do? Head for the sewing room of course. When I walked in I thought the hard wood floors looked a little funny, then I noticed the water between the rolling chair mat and the floor.

What is on the floor of the sewing room you might ask. Well, like any good fabric enthusiast there were the requisite stacks of fabric, a really nice basket with all of my clothing patterns (many of them vintage), some batting, and various other things. Needless to say DH and I have spent the last 3 hours getting stuff out, putting the wet fabric in the washer and cataloging the damage. It looks like I will need to replace the hardwood which will require completely emptying the entire room of 5 sewing machines, 1 floor to sealing shelving unit and the sewing machine tables and cabinets. What I'm trying to say is that the rows for the next couple of months may be a little delayed until I get the sewing room back together. Good thing is I believe in flood insurance and keep it up to date, the family is safe and none of my electronics were damaged.

Oh my goodness! What a lot of work! Where do you live. Texas is having lots of flooding. Saw many rescues as I worked in my 2nd floor sewing room. No rain here. I am high and dry but I certainly feel for you. Hang in there and keep us posted. I guess all we can do is offer sympathy and give encouragement. Good luck with the clean up.

On Wednesday, my mini group (The Wednesday Wonders) is going to have a workshop in hand-dying fabric. (I think we will be using gel dyes.) I hope to be able to use my resulting masterpieces

in my rows for at least some of you, so please keep your fingers crossed. Unless you are sewing. Or cooking, or painting or anything for which you need straight fingers

Love and light to all,
Kath
