Hello Happy Quilters! It's been awhile since my last blog post. I've posted a couple times on other social media but for the most part I'm still in a "Funk". Thank you so much to those of you who have reached out to me this week via e-mails. Not much has changed. The health issues are still a concern. To keep the whining to a minimal I'll just say that Benadryl has become part of my daily routine to keep the histamine rash at bay. The natural remedies haven't worked and for now I refuse prescription medicine. With a little relief from the rash, getting back into the studio for a few minutes here and there has been possible. The Disappearing 9-patch QAL hosted by Julie at The Crafty Quilter blog was supposed to be the kick in the pants to restart my MOJO. Sigh....what can a gal do but go with the flow, even when the flow is more like a trickle. The nine patches have been sliced and diced and hung on the design wall.
These florals mixed with the large scale gingham in the Elm Park by Laura Ashley make my little ole heart melt. Pairing the Laura Ashley with Lakehouse Drygoods green print added a subtle consistency to the quilt with overwhelming the design.
Getting row one together wasn't easy. I literally had to dust the cobwebs from my sewing machine. The rest of the studio webs can wait. Yes there's webs everywhere when the sunlight shines into the studio. I could leave the webs for a few more months and have natural Halloween decor!....HAHA!
Hopefully I can get the rest of the quilt together before they become covered with more webs. Wish me luck! I need all I can get. Love you all! Thanks again for your quilty vibes and cheering me on during this funky time. I hope to be back to normal or what I consider to be normal soon.
