The Good News - The Bad News!
Have you missed me? Oh, I have you - all the blogs I follow have disappeared - and that's only a small part of my problems - I am thinking maybe a couple of dear friends in Blogland maybe able to get me get out of that spot of bother!
The Good News - it is so lovely to be here ... The Bad News - I smashed my car up last Tuesday and from here on I will pop from good to bad news! I was the only person in my car and there was only a driver in the other car involved and he certainly appeared to have survived quite nicely. It would probably be imprudent to go into too many details at this time - I have fractured my sternum and the pain is not nice. I certainly have had my wings clipped and am having a little worry about my 'to-do's', but forever optimistic, I feel I will get there. In order, parcels for my recent Giveaway have not been posted, along with one special one. Also I have my SSCS with Chookyblue to complete and my Small Quilt Swap with Mary to start and complete - let's hope I cover a bit of distance in the week to come, how? I don't know, but we'll try, lol!
Let me tell you about the top fabrics - I have bought a bundle of fat quarters from Calico & Ivy by Melissa White Rowan Fabrics - now do I have to have a reason, well I haven't, just thought they look look very gorgeous and will be there for one day ...

Another circle finished - I think that is 5 out of 9 I want to do. If only I had plenty of handwork prepared - I find I can sit comfortably for a little while if propped up with pillows!
I've had time to do quite a bit of browsing and have come across this lovely little eagle silhouette quilt by Sarah Feilke in her book From Little Things ... and look, I think I just happen to have fabrics in my stash to piece the background in 3" cut squares - can I manage the machine? - we'll just have to see - it would make me feel so good if I can concentrate and achieve!

I hope this Post publishes okay - fingers crossed and hope you are all having a great weekend, big hugs!
