I picked up some "white fabric scraps" at a local thrift store that turned out to be linen squares that look very much like ones my grandmother used in the early 20th century. Even a small quilt made with them would be lovely. (Uh-oh, now my brain will be dreaming not just quilt patterns but embroidery patterns as well!)<br />Keep healing!Dora, the Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16043451474748191494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2745598838662491175.post-38093579751109498432015-02-18T09:30:54.340-04:002015-02-18T09:30:54.340-04:00Kaaren, just found your Noah and Friends quilt in ...Kaaren, just found your Noah and Friends quilt in Primitive Quilts and Projects and I love it.

My 35 year old daughter was in an auto accident Jan. 8. She broke and dislocated both bones in her left leg near the ankle. She had surgery with a plate and screws and has been home with a walker and no weight on that leg. She will find out Feb. 18 what the next "step" is in her recovery.

Safe trip to your doctor next week. Seventy miles can go by in a flash ordinarily, but when there is snow, and the roads are slippery, it can take so much longer.

So I can totally relate with you right now in that department. I would send DH up for supplies, but I was in the middle of remodeling my room, so I have no idea where anything is as it's all boxed up. He'd never find what I wanted. I've worked on some hexi blocks that was thankfully down stairs where I can reach them. But that is about all I"ve accomplished. I am very thankful for time flying by however at time I get restless and want to get upstairs to my room and see if I can locate some needed things. May God heal you quickly and all go well with your upcoming Otho. Visits.
