Just a quick peek...
This is a pattern I call "Garden Bliss" the perfect spring quilt. I almost have the pattern
finished, it just needs a few illustrations. This is a pattern I have
taught at the LQS. I had a large class and the ladies were so nice. This is Marla's quilt from my
class. I just love the colors that she used. I will show more of the
quilt when I get the pattern printed. The quilt is just beautiful. I
finished quilting it last month, but things have been unusually
challenging...pattern to follow...
The latest on the T-Shirt quilt...
Just the finishing touches on the t-shirt quit. I am onto the binding
now. I just quilted this with a quick swirl. The binding is all I have
left! :) then I hand it off the happy owner.
BOM time...
Here is my BOM that I am updating to use solids! I totally love it!
I
also have a couple other quilts that I had finished last month. I am
saving them, I may need them for a post or two next month depending on
my recovery time.
so...where have I been hiding lately?
Learing to relax!
This was my 2013 Scion TC, I really liked that car! It was only 6 months old, it still had the new car smell! I didn't eat in it, I babied the crap out of that car! Wow... How quickly our life can change. One minute I am driving home from a day at the office job, and then.... I am rear ended on the freeway. She had to be going 60 MPH. I am very grateful I had the car I did, it took the hit for me. I am much better than I would have been in many other cars. You should have seen their 2001 Passat, no question there, their car was totaled, they had to be extricated from their car. I was blessed to have the Easter holiday with my family, the dogs and the weather. I found a new appreciation for life! definitely....So...After 2 trips to the ER, and a week and a half later, I am just getting things back together in my head, the first week is a total blur. I had no business trying to do business as usual.
I haven't been able to quilt since the accident? Not sure how the healing will go. I just want to quilt, but I am not the young quilter I used to be. It is amazing how bad my body hurts. If I try quilting, I am in severe pain shortly after. I have tried taking it easy, and it doesn't really make a difference! I just hurt!!! So I just have to let it go for a few days?
If you think the car is bad, you should see what this has done to my waiting list. I don't even know where to start. I am guessing slowly is the best way for now. This is a new concept to me. I usually quilt to relax! so...I am going to have to learn how to actually relax? Is their a website I could read on that, one that will not inspire me to get up and go?
Taking it one day at a time.
