Slowly, slowly!

Just wanted to let everyone know I'm still stitching away. Sorry - no pictures. Hope to have some tomorrow.

I've been spending quite a bit of time in hospital waiting rooms. Firstly with my son getting his broken leg/torn ligament sorted out and then with my second youngest daughter getting her appendix out. Its been quite a year.

I've selected the fabric - stayed with reds and bought bigger pieces than needed so thatni can use the same fsbric with some of the other projects. No photo of that either. Big plams to do lots today, but managed to get a replacement specialist appointment for another son - cancelled because of the appendix op. Now that's out of the way, I'm hoping to get some things sorted out tomorrow.

Cheers

Marg - what a time you have had of it - too much drama in a short time I think. Hopefully you'll get to the making bit soon.
