Good bye Ike

We had enough rain for a month in the last 2 days. According to our local radio station, we had 5.75" of rain in 2 days. We have rarely had the remnants from 2 hurricanes in the same month in the Chicago area.

Here is the piecing that I did last night to unwind, using the bits that I had made the night before.
Here is the wrong side with all of the seams pressed open. The batiks are made from a high thread count and the seams press open really easily, unlike other quilting cottons.
The asters are starting to bloom. That is usually when I have the most butterflies.
My company should be arriving shortly. Have a great day everyone.
