I know that a lot of members come from Queensland, Australia. For those of you who are unaware, Queensland is being ravaged by floods at the moment. About 80% of the State has been declared a disaster area. I just wanted those of you in Queensland who still have access to power and a computer, that our thoughts are with you in your time of hardship. You are not alone. The entire country is with you as I am sure your friends on the board will be.

I have been glued to the TV all day- there are some amazing (and not in any good way) images coming out of there- very scary, and very sad.

Many prayers going up from me on your behalf, Austrailian friends. Remember who is in control and don't lose hope!

Yes my prayers are with them all....and after all is done, count me in to send fabric to help them replenish their stash if need-be!
