Updates.....

Pleased with how it is going but will be 24/7 for 5weeks more in sling. the fracture is too high on the shoulder for casting and he does not recommend surgery. I also saw the cardiologist. My Blood Pressure was low as was my heart rate. Back to daily taking my BP. I am building a reputation at the CORE Institute. All my surgeons are with this group so when I went to check in, the girl had this funny expression after entering my info. Yes I said, I was just here for Achilles surgery....my plan is to work through all the surgeons!

My arm is still very bruised and so very sore. Did I mention the doctor said I can sew slowly on my quilt...as long as I do not use the arm just the hand wrist. As much as I do not like and hardly ever take narcotic pain meds,  this is one time where I do at bedtime. This sling is not very comfortable and I spend lots of time adjusting it. It is what it is.

I got mail....from Kathy Harris. Thank you so much for the lovely selection. Another name on my friendship quilt!

Dianna came to visit on Wednesday. We had lunch and she learned how to make the Cathedral Quilt squares. 

 


This is her first block. A block is 4 muslin squares and 4 windows. She chose the specific prints for the windows because of our lunch. I made an assorted greens salad and the choice of add ins including edible flowers. Our next stitch time will be in a week or so. Can't wait to see her next block.


Here is the quilt so far....loving it!


 

Okay, enough typing. Need to rest so I can stitch.....

Always happy to have you stop by. Thank you for your kind words and encouragement. thank you for your friendship and adding to my quilt!
