New cuties and our bad air...

I have the next six blocks all prepped which for me is putting it on a foundation, adding knit fusible interfacing, basting in the size of the block and basting in a red "stop" line to keep me from adding beads I'll eventually have to cut off.  Then I also put fusible knit interfacing on the back of the images to help them sit smoothly on the block.  This took some time but now I have all six blocks read to go and here are the images I have chosen to finish this project...
 
And Spokane had the dubious distinction of having the worst air quality in the entire nation yesterday with an index reading of over 300 which is hazardous for everyone.  It is because of all the fires.  All outdoor activities were cancelled and everyone was urged to stay indoors.   It is really bothering my eyes, I have a sore throat and a terrible headache and the fires continue to explode. This was taken yesterday... not too far from us.  All my hummingbirds have left and I know it is because of the terrible air.

These girls are all cute. I just say thanks that we don't have to wear such a thing. I remember pantie girdles and they were bad enough. Did you get the ribbons I sent to you? We had smoke from fires here earlier in the year. Even with the windows all closed up the house was still full of smoke and my chest kept getting more and more congested. I hope they stay away from you and that the firefighters are able to get them under control quickly.

My goodness - I can't imagine having to stuff my fluffy body into any of those outfits. Ouch. Nice to dream though! So sorry about the fires in your area - stay safe, and we will hope for rain.

love the corseted ladies so glad though I do not wear them I am thinking of you as those firs are rageing and pray all will soon be extinguished and of course the humming birds return

Looking forward to seeing your "corseteers" all done up! Hoping you get some rain to help put out the fires and clean the air.

Wow! We had one day of smoke in Salem about the time of your post, but it was nowhere near as bad as has been in your area.
