Poor Dolly is not her usual happy self, and it will be a while before we get back to our nightly walks. She's a very subdued little dog, and thinks twice about moving anywhere at all.
We took her to the vet to be spayed on Wednesday, and it's been a tough few days as she recovers. The vet commented on how tightly muscled she is, which has to be due to Macca, her Dad; her mum is a barrel of blubber.The tight muscles means she's very sore, and lets us know; I do believe she's getting even more spoiled now. But it's hard to resist her woebegone little face.
We had a joint garage sale with friends today, so no sewing was achieved. I'm working away at the Milky Way blocks, nearly three-quarters finished now. My sewing room is covered in a layer of navy and cream fabrics, which will take a lot of tidying up; I wish I could learn to pack things away as I go, but I don't seem to work that way.
I should probably start thinking about the next piecing project, seeing this is nearly done. Time to go through the books and choose something new, something colourful I think. I'm a bit tired of two colour quilts.

Poor girl, she looks very subdued. Hoping she recovers quickly.
Poor Dolly! She is so active normally, isn't she...a little mass of muscle!! Hope she is all well soon. I am looking forward to seeing your Milky Way blocks, and think it is neat that you saved fabrics for it for so many years.
I have never seen a spay incision on the flank. Ours are always by the belly button. I hope she feels better than I did!
Uh oh, hope Dolly will be OK. She looks miserable but then she has a very expressive face.
Gentle pats for Dolly. Honey was very sick when she was spayed, poor little dog.
Look forward to seeing your brights.
