Tough Mrs. O'Quilts ....All snowed in in Charlotte

All the Rottweilers and cats and sewing machines and Grandma.
Being brave in the snow in Charlotte.
North Carolina is closed..sigh.
My neighborhood is snowed in.
Praying electricity stays on.

Muggs et..all  surviving the storm the only way they should.
Snuggled in quilts!!!  

Tonight....my survival...hmmm  one of these blocks is not like the other...
And, it is going to stay that way.
It is the storm block...the scary one..


And, the binding is on my elephant quilt...long needing a finish.

 How could I be fretful when lovely Lili is sleeping under my gift..
Come on storm...come on..just pass on...
So saved with help from my friends..

So I have stopped bracing for impact...mostly...
The news says the storm is almost passed/
So saved with help from my friends.

Thought that this link was so quilty interesting.
Heart of Wonderment...fabric painting and printing
Back to working on the WIP thing!!

My Life on a Roll....

This morning I delivered Liliana's quilt....way overdue..
 ..and the finished doll quilt for her 3 year old sister Eva.

 Since Kristen moved an hour away, I have had to re-assess my stash.  She has everything folded like in a magazine...however, I cannot find a thing without texting her...not good.  Close your eyes K..if you are reading this...ugh..while .looking frantically for my pink cupcake fabric, without finding it.. all I did was leave a mess behind(:
Mr.O'Quilts is now starting four tube feedings a day.  They last for an hour and a half each.  My sister and my girl have it all down to perfection, but..they need me to learn too.  Tonight for some reason I was well...I have had concussion symptoms for the past few weeks..but tonight..better. 
 I had a lesson.  Starting slowly.. 
We have some wonderful core friends...others shy away...they do not know what to say, or they do not want to be a bother.  I understand. I saw all that when I worked at Hospice  years ago.  Thank goodness that there are three of us here and family coming across the pond to visit and help.  The Mister no longer is able to talk on the phone...voice a whisper.  We are so lucky to live in the age of texting and email.TBTG.
Emily's beau arrives on Wednesday for a few days.  That  should be a very good thing.
Now...for that pink cupcake fabric.....
