Preparing For Isaac

 
 
There is a Hurricane brewing in the Gulf of Mexico.
 
 
My sweet Southern state of Mississippi
is in its projected path.

Last night I should have been at Walmart
(with the rest of the city)
stocking up on water, batteries, and candles.
 
Instead I sent Hubby and  I pulled out
my "untouched for months"
box of "large" scrap pieces.
 
 
 
 
As a Florida girl, this isn't the first storm
that I have been threw.
So my way of planning ahead was to cut up my scraps
and prepare a few projects
just in case
I don't have electricity, cable, or Internet.
 
So after about an hour of cutting,
I had these:
 

 
I cut three different sizes:
5" squares, 2 1/2" squares, and tumbler pieces.
 
 
I plan to spend most of my time
working on my "never ending" hexagons,
but I have the other piles just in case I get bored.
 
Oh yeah, I picked this up the day and I plan to give it
a try.
 
 
Well at least I will be prepared!
 
Until Next Time ... Happy Quilting!

  2. Isaac has just passed us, with lots of rain. We will be keeping you in our thoughts and prayers.
