We survived the strong winds and rain last night but were without power and may still be yet. I took my cues from the cats. They didn’t seem concerned most of the time and when they were worried, I paid attention too. Lot of damage in the Nassau NY area including some structures damaged but towards home, some trees down, lots of branches and leaves and melting refrigerators. Whew. Quite a storm. So much lightning that it looked like daylight outside.

Rachel on her way to the well.
 Little more progress here this weekend. I think the sheep are turning out pretty well. They can’t be real black-faced sheep but this gives you an idea. And in the far green area you can see just a hint of the other shepherds waiting with Jacob at the well.

rachel in progress
 Rachel is starting to take form. Her head scarf wouldn’t stay put (makes sense to me that it would be ok to wear it around your shoulders unless you need it around your head) and so her hair is more exposed than originally planned. I did get the area around the well into a little better shape.

Spent the night pulling and ripping fabric to start this. It’s a little different now than what’s here.

This is a background for a 22" square piece portraying Rachel of the Old Testament — daughter of Laban, sister of Leah, wife of Jacob, mother of Joseph and Benjamin.

Tonight I kept up trying to clear the decks for some larger projects that I am itching to get into. Last night I actually put away thread and stuff like that. Tonight I did my July Journal Quilt. My original plan was to change to a white background fabric in June but that didn’t happen. I used a pale grey instead. Tonight I did it — I used a plain white pima cotton for July. Hopefully I can stick with it and do the last two in white also. It’s all about the quilting remember! So I’ll use colorful threads in at least one of them.
