Thank yous to those of you who left several creative ideas for making my hollow core door/tabletop smooth for free-motion machine quilting. (See the previous blog post.) I haven't done anything to fix that problem yet, but when I do, I will be sure to let you know.

Finishing the letter "C" is all I've managed to do while I've been here in Kansas helping our daughter who's pregnant and has a separated pelvis. While here, my sewing has been limited to making curtains for new French doors into our SIL's home office, and hemming fabric for a tablecloth. For at least several weeks, I expect handwork will be the extent of my personal sewing. Our grandson is still expected to arrive by a scheduled c-section on Monday, November 8, but today the doc says he has a 50/50 chance of arriving early.
For those of you who like Halloween - and I am admittedly one who does not - here's an appropriate knock-knock joke from Kady L. at "Take a Mom's Word for It."
Knock, knock.
Who's there?
Phillip.
Phillip.
Phillip who?
Phillip my bag with candy!
Your embroidery is impressive! Love it! Are you going home one more time? It's getting close!! You have really hung in there.
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, the blocks are so cute. Sounds like you are keeping busy. I have Jill & the baby in my prayers, plus the rest of you!
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are just darling, such sweet designs too.
ReplyDeleteThose embroideries are the cutest! (and I'm with you on Halloween). Keeping you all in my prayers too :-))
ReplyDeleteI love embroidery - the snowmen are wonderful and, although I love redwork, the different colors used in embroidery really have my fingers itching to try them. blessings, marlene
ReplyDeleteLove your blocks especially the candy cane one.
ReplyDeleteOh, I hope your daughter is not in pain. It sure does sound painful.
Praying the baby is alright.
