view from my couch


The view from my couch...
Yeah, Fun!

It takes a lot to nail me down to one spot... But Thursday afternoon took me down... I had a few doctor appointments pre-booked, as I had not been feeling well the last couple months, and now that I'm home, and done traveling, it felt like the right time to just get flat out sick. LOL....


Not a bad time to get sick, I got to veg-out for four days on my sofa... I had good company. Jenny Egg kept me warm...(an dogged the blankets) 
I got to cozy up with netflix and I pondered writing out my xmas cards, 
but my arms were to tired for that, so I slept, and slept, and slept, instead.  
And, I didn't even sew!!! (until today!)

Today I felt a bit better, so I only spent a small portion on my newly made nest... And today, I did sew. I am hand quilting my "personal app quilt", for an exhibit for Road to California.
More on that a bit later when I get it done... It's laying there, on the sofa... 
with the orange polka dots... ( I LOVE POLKA DOTS!)


It's no fun being sick... But hopefully I'm on the up swing, before Xmas.

The best news?
Getting this shot of this happy customer on his new race car quilt...



That makes me feel ALL BETTER!!!

  8. So sorry to hear you are not feeling well. As hard as you have been working your body just said stop and rest! The race car quilt is so darn cute! Feel better soon! Only 64 days until we could possibly meet for the first time at QuiltCon!

  9. "The Sick" seems to be going around. I have been nesting for a week. The doctor said it is viral and that I just need to treat symptoms and "wear it out" But if I get worse I am to call him.
    I hope yours is all over quickly.

  12. Not a bad view at all, if you have to be sick. I, too, LOVE to get pics of babies on or people using the quilts I gift. It's THE BEST form of thank you ever.
