Our rain has continued at a slow and steady rate.  The official gauge for our area reports 2.58 inches for the last week, and our combined lake levels have reached 91%.  Yay!



The rainy days have given me an opportunity to spend some guilt-free hours at the machine.  Here are the 15 anti-ouch pouches completed yesterday that are ready to be turned in at next week's guild meeting.  Now I'm playing with circle and bow tie blocks.



My Christmas cactus is blooming too.  This plant was loaded with buds when it was given to me as a hostess gift during the holidays, but they immediately dropped due to being moved.  Now that it has settled in, it is blooming again.

I love the color of those blooms. I have a few blooms left on 3 plants. Some never bloomed this winter but then a few always wait until April so I won't give up on them.

Congrats on your rain--and your charity sewing done :). We've finally surpassed last year's dismal rain totals in SoCal, but we're hoping still that El Niño will bring late storms. Pretty cactus flower!

Please, tell me what the "anti-ouch" pouches are. Thanks.......
