I finished a few more Jacob’s Ladder blocks at Sit ‘N Sew today. I wasn’t nearly as productive as I expected since I ended up spending a lot more time visiting than sewing. It was a nice day, though. I decided to put all my completed blocks up on the design wall to see how they are coming together. I believe I have 30 out of 48 done.
The additional rain we were hoping for came around midnight last night. According to the LCRA gauges closest to our house in town, we received .73 inch in the last 24 hours. The gauge at our ranch recorded .8 inch for the same time period. Our lakes are still horrendously low. I believe we will need an accumulation of around 20 inches before there will be enough run off to bring them back to normal levels, but we were so very grateful for what we received.
Now it’s time to clear out the sewing room to make room for air mattresses. We are expecting a visit from the kids this Thanksgiving.
Happy Turkey Day all!

Happy Thanksgiving!
I really like the scrappy look to your blocks.
Love the look of your blocks!
What beautiful scrappy colors that seem to blend so well! Love your blocks and the quilt will be wonderful! Glad you are getting some rain too!
Be careful with the air mattress in the sewing room, watch for pins!! (Ask me how I know this...)
Have a blessed Christmas!
