Catching Up

I didn't mean to stay away this long.   If you read my April 1 post, I'd helped move part of a bookcase upstairs.   The pain from that has gone from bad to worse.   I've had x-rays twice and an MRI.   Today I start physical therapy - 8 weeks 2-3 times a week.   I've twisted and pulled things in my back and legs that I can't fix.   If I sit too long, it's getting harder and harder to stand.  Hopefully they can help me figure out what to do.  

Here are some of my spring quilts.   My husband has been great to help me hang these.  I still have my Easter decorations out.  I'll take photos of those and post them. 

This quilt is done using a product called Quiltsmart.  

This is a Shabby Fabrics pattern.  

This is one of my patterns Dresden Blossoms.  

This spool is a project I did along with two of my cross stitch buddies.  It is a Jeanette Douglas pattern.  It's stitched on 36 count mystery cloth that one of my friends shared with me.

My  daughter-in-law is into making charcuterie boards, so I tried one when the family came over to celebrate my birthday.  

This is what I've been working on.  This is the 1797 Revisited quilt.  The photo on the left is the before photo.  I just wasn't happy with how long and narrow this quilt was.  So instead of taking out part of the top and bottom, I added 4 rows to each long side and reworked the corners.  It took a couple of weeks, but I'm a lot happier with the size.  

 Thanks for stopping by for a visit.

I hope you're finding some time to stitch today.
