Thank you!

Thank you all for sharing your wonderful eye candy, sending good wishes and prayers. They are most appreciated.  You are so thoughtful. We still don't know anything (still feel crappy, but beginning to think now it is the meds she gave me).  Yesterday, decided to do something mindless and found myself drawn to making the string blocks for the Craftsy BOM.  There is something soothing about just sewing strips together.  Of course I had to change it.  I made the Spiderweb block first.  By the time I got ready to make the other one, was running out of steam, so just used a stripe instead of strips. I'm getting an idea for the setting of these blocks.

First block I made is on right.  Do your seams seem so pronounced?  Maybe it was the way I ironed them.  Oh, well - off to have a warm cup of water.  Take care!

Applique Thursday Not

Still feeling poorly - had a bunch of tests today.  Docs are cogitating what is wrong. Felt best this morning, but now am off to bed.  Alas, didn't feel up to much once home from the lab - did finish that charity quilt - just straight seams - a squishy back, no batting.  The back is kinda of like minky - so soft and thick. Down hill from there.  Pick up my hoop once in a while, so this is as far as I've gotten on that.

Sure could use some eye candy.  Share yours, please.

Design Wall Monday 3/5/12

Haven't done any sewing since Thursday. I babysat two of my DGKs Friday-Saturday and then promptly got sick as they went out the door. Up from the sick to see what you're up to. If you want to see what other's are doing go to Judy's Patchwork Times on my sidebar. Here's where I stopped Thursday - a charity tube quilt in construction:
