Home Thursday

I brought a quilt to sleep under in my hotel room... I'm thinking I will 
always do this from here on out...All it takes to make this room feel
 like home, is to wrap up in a homemade quilt.

During hospital time, I finally gave in and downloaded some new apps....
Instagrams... how fun are they?


Some of my goodies from Roseann's shop, and Millie P's , 
and a few from Quilted Treasures .  Ideas are developing!

 A few more goodies from the antique shop...

did you comment for the book giveaway?

Guess who busted out today?
Cardio rehab underway!

    Good for your Mom! So glad she is on the road to recovery. And you'll be on the road home soon, too. I take my favorite flannel quilt along whenever possible. Just makes me sleep better. :-)

    Your mom looks great after what she's just been through. I know you have been such a comfort to her. I too have taken a quilt along on a trip before...it's wonderful to wrap up in something that is yours.

    Great going, V's mom! You are doing so well and I am so happy for your entire happy that you are on the mend! Love your quilt idea for hotel rooms, V! One of the things Dr. Oz says about hotels is never, ever lay on top of or frankly, use, their quilts. They are horrificly gross with germs. AND always bring a baggie for the tv remote or spray with lysol. Makes me cringe now that I know those things;) But 'mom' you are out and hopefully free of negative germs and may you only get better and better!

    good wishes sent your way - and so happy that your mom is on the mend! I love the idea of taking one of your quilts to the hotel ... just be sure to run it through the hot dryer when you get home (bedbugs!!!!)

    So glad your Mom is out of the hospital! I had a hospital stay myself in November and I knew I was on the mend when I was on my way out the front door. Love the goodies you bought! Lots of pattern and color!

    So glad your Mom's doing better. The "bring your own quilt" idea is AWESOME, and so worth stealing, although it may require a larger suitcase for those of us not good at traveling light.

    I can tell by your smile that your Mom is doing well! Our prayers were heard. I bring quilts and pillows if I can. There's nothing like one's own bed!

    Glad your Mom is on the mend. Going home is always great. Looks like you managed to get in some fun stuff too. Great fabric, meeting a friend, playing with your computer. I know it will be good to get home again.

    Hi: I have been reading your blog for a few months now and although I'm not usually much of a commenter (shy, you know) I just wanted to say that I am so thrilled your mom is doing better. As a cardiac patient myself I can identify with her journey to recovery and I hope she continues to make slow but steady progress. Take care and happy sewing!
