Been Awhile

I have been busy getting quilts done, and managing the pain from my back situation.

Saw a specialist and it has been determined that I should have back surgery. So that has been scheduled, some of my customers and the quilt shops have been notified. I will try to get done the quilts that are in the house before the surgery. I won't be able to quilt for up to 2 months after the surgery.

I will have lots of down time to get UFOs done. Some tatting, knitting, and finish hand quilting a quilt that I started many many years ago. I also purchased some new Machine quilting tools and training DVDs for new techniques. I will have lots of time to practice drawing the designs. Practice practice practice.

Here is a sneak peek at a show quilt I am quilting for my talented friend Sharon.

So sorry to hear you have to have back surgery! That is so difficult to recover from and I truly hope it helps! I also have back pain so I can somewhat relate.

This quilt is absolutely beautiful! I don't do quilting myself, but a lot of other things. I like it however and looking at it all the time. Great job.
