Stacking the Deck






Stacking the Deck
Two novelty decks of cards were used for this quilt. One deck had Saddam Hussein, his sons and other Iraqi players and the other deck had members of the Bush Administration. Playing with the deck of cards which were purchased at the Chicago Flea Market years ago made me revisit the “Shock and Awe” and other the Iraqi War Games.

Water in the basement aftermath

A water pipe incident created a huge mess..cleanup of my sewing space will continue on..Really appreciate the help from family and friends.
Am discovering lots of great fabrics and notions and am also realizing I need to give away LOTS of stuff acquired over 30 plus years....It sure is overwhelming!
