stepping away for a spell

Maggie, Gretta and I went to Billings Farm and Museum to check out the annual quilt exhibit. I’ll share photos of some of the fabric quilts later this August, but I thought you might enjoy seeing these barn quilt beauties!

We continue to thank our lucky stars that we are perched on high ground, and avoided the third wave of flooding that devastated parts of Vermont last week. Some towns in the Northeast Kingdom got 8” of rain overnight, in places that have already seen record flooding this summer. It’s been a very humid and warm summer…my least favorite kind! It’s all quite sobering.

August has turned into a very busy time, and in order to take a few things off my plate, I am going to give sewandsowlife a rest for a few weeks. You can be sure I’ll be back with more photos and musings. In the meantime, be who you are and keep on shining your light, dearest ones. xo
