Eclipse Day!

So it is about 2:24 pm here and it is strange looking outside. We are to be 70-80% at 2:45. While everyone keeps playing the song clip "total eclipse of the sun" I prefer Pinkfloyd's "and when the band you're in starts playing different tunes, I'll see you on the dark side of the moon". It is quite the day!

I don't have any glasses so I can't look up, though the temptation is real......

My swap quilt is complete! I absolutely love it! I am so happy to have taken those blocks and turned them into something, rather than let them languish on my table.

The reds are all different which I think makes it so much more interesting than if they were all the same.

I used the bow tie blocks and the nine patches along the edges without thought as to where I placed them.

The crazy colors all go together and I love the wave quilting.

I love the texture. I am a person who likes lots of quilting in her quilts! 

How cute is this fabric? I have wrapping paper that is this exact pattern. I follower contacted me and said it is in a fabric store where she lives (Washington state) and said how about I buy some for you?

Not only did she buy me the fabric, she gave it to me and sent it as pretty as a present. Thank you Jonna and I will be sure to pay it forward.
Quilters are the nicest people.
Got to go, it's almost here!
