Well needless to say I haven't been posting much here the last week or so. I have been getting my grandchildren's quilts ready to go. I have on on the quilt frame already and the other 2 I am basting together at this time. On top of that I am still making some other blocks that I am committed to making. Seems as though the sewing machine never stops these days.
The only time it stops right now has been for necessity. Like sleep or trips to the dr. or dentist. The big trip out was to the dentist this week. I had to have all my teeth extracted (Ouch). I am doing ok. I will be getting dentures in about 6 weeks. It had to be done this way because of my other health issues. It seem that the moment that I begin feeling better than I have in years something else just pops right in to take its place. The good thing is that I am not in any real discomfort, I just look funny. I sure will be glad when the swelling goes down though. The good news is that being home and believe me going out as little as possible right now, I am getting a lot of my quilting projects for the holidays well under way.
I have also decided to make quilted Christmas cards this year. They are being done in a red work design. So far the few samples I have made myself have come out very good. This year I figure the extra effort is worth the time since I was unable to send out cards last year. This holiday season looks as though it will be better than the last one. I surely hope so. Well back to the sewing machine. julia
