Trying to keep busy

So that means serious sewing time.

Dh has been fabulous, he has kept the kids

occupied for me today and the house quiet

I didn't sleep very well last night

and I had a hangover due to a

serious case of drowning my sorrows

and I was up way to early like 6am 

anyhoo, last night I picked out 2 quilt patterns

1 time consuming, complex pattern

and 1 oh so simple pattern

I started on the complex one and after

repeatedly unpicking it I put it aside

for another day when I don't have so much

on my mind and when I can concentrate

This is what I made instead ( its not the oh so easy pattern either)

fabric is Fig tree quilts, there is a pale yellow spot 2 1/2"

border to go on and then a redy floral  5 1/2" border

and its done, ready for quilting as soon as I get some wadding

and backing fabric later in the week, once this is sewn up tomorrow

I will start on the 2nd oh so easy pattern, just to keep busy

 I stitched block 8 of In My Garden together after dinner

and have done nearly all the stitching tonight  (4 words to go)

while I tried to watch tv

block 9 is finished I will get that sewn up ready for stitching in

front of the tv tomorrow night

and the fabric I bought in Batemans Bay



Thank you all for your prayers and good thoughts for my family

it means so much to me
