1st SAL.....Peg, Dale and I committed to stitching Anni Downs - A Gardener's Journal in March.

Broken ankle, not much sewing

Since I have to keep my ankle up most of the time until I get my cast off September 1 not much sewing at the machine right now (but I'm sure I'll figure out something!) lucky I'm done up to the end of August! My friend Holly came to visit yesterday! It's great to have such a good friend to raise your spirits!

I hope you have some 'slaves' to fetch and carry for you.....and plenty of hand sewing....you could hand piece the squares for this months work.
Wishing you a speedy recovery

Ouch!!! So sorry you are laid up.

I just have a boot on my broken toe, but did learn how to push the sewing machine pedal with my left foot....:) For sewing we can definitely adapt. Feel better really soon. I only have 6 more days for the doc to take the pin out of my foot.
