Another Kaleidoscope quilt

I finished piecing another Kaleidocope quilt and got it on the quilt frame the other day.
I got the quilting finished today and just need to bind it. I designed the quilting with a new program I got called Pro-Q designer. I was amazed how well the quilting turned out with this program and how easily it all lined up.
Here's a close-up, it is a simple quilt design of hearts and loops.

Earthquake?

No, but forget sleeping in on a Saturday morning. My neighborhood has been getting torn up for months now and today was our day for replacing the sewer lines. The whole house shook while they tore up the street and half of our driveway.
This big hole is right in our driveway next to the Cherry tree and those are roots sticking out. We just spent $400 last Sunday because those roots got into the sewer line and sewage was backing up into the house, of course now a week later those lines are being replaced.
We are forced to park in our front yard and at times we were blocked in, but I managed to drive the jeep out of the side yard through the ditch and escape for awhile.
