Happy Monday!
Happy Eclipse Day!
When I was a kid, my Dad brought home a welder's shield so we could view the eclipse with that on for protection. Today I'll be spending the time indoors with my dog who will be likely napping; his nap time is about the same time. I've heard to keep animals in the house and protected during the eclipse.
This quilt is one of my oldest and it has a variety of names including "Harvest Sun". It seemed fitting for today.

This quilt is circa 1845 and the quilting is wonderful on it:
If these aren't your cup of tea, here are two more sun-themed patterns:
Have a safe and happy day!
The quilt is beautiful, amazing, a treasure. The colors, quilting, execution and condition are outstanding.
ReplyDeleteNorth Texas is waiting to see if the cirrus cloud cover retreats for the eclipse. The National Weather Service thinks most of us will at least be able to see through the "veil of clouds", but they are far more focused on the severe thunderstorms setup for this afternoon and tonight. Exciting times!
ReplyDeleteWe've got eclipse glasses at the ready. It's cloudless today so hope for good (and safe) viewing.
