Wishing everyone a happy Fourth of July!

249 years since we declared independence from a king, the work of living up to our founding promise is more important than ever - and it calls on each of us to do what we can for our country.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

The unimaginable has been confirmed.
Shiri Bibas, the mama lioness, was brutally murdered in Hamas captivity.
She has returned home to rest with her babies, Kfir & Ariel. A mother’s love stolen, a family erased—but her memory will never fade.
May her memory be a blessing.
May it be a revolution.

My Gov. thank you.
Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance.

Democracy requires your courage.

"Griffin isn’t alleging that a single fraudulent vote was cast, and he’s not claiming any irregularities with the final vote count. He’s simply trying to change the rules after an election, so that he gets more votes."
Like Trump, Jefferson Griffin May Be One Vote Away From Overturning a State’s Election Result
Opinion | North Carolina voters won’t forget how the judges charged with protecting their democracy handled this attempted election theft.

This is my favorite, super scrappy two-sided, reversible Wild and Goosey quilt. Backed with spots because there seems to be no end to the scraps, but I’m sure trying to put a dent in the scrap bin! Finished in 2023. Thanks to Bonnie Hunter for the inspirational pattern💙

At Cabaret yesterday, Cliff said his line “…if you’re not against all this then you’re for it. Or you might as well be”. The audience interrupted the scene to applaud that line so strongly it stopped the show. Doing a show about the onset of fascism right now is. . . chilling.

I’m a little bit obsessed with One Block Wonder quilts. Wishing I could post them all, but four is the limit in a post…

It may be that when we no longer know what to do
we have come to our real work,
and that when we no longer know which way to go
we have come to our real journey.
The mind that is not baffled is not employed.
The impeded stream is the one that sings.

This is my 365 Quilt Challenge quilt. The idea is to make a block every day for a year. I enjoyed the process. The pattern is from Kathryn Kerr. Finished in 2022.
