This cold has been really hard to shake off, and it's not done with yet. The antibiotics are helping with the secondary infection, but the viral part just won't go away. Every day I tell myself I feel better than the day before, so I'm grateful for that at least. It hasn't stopped me, just slowed me down to a walk, so the list of finished things is disappointingly small. I'm hoping I can pick up the pace over the weekend.
There has been more sorting and cleaning and organising of stuff. There has been some socialising and drinking of coffee, And finally there has been some quilting!
Yesterday I felt good enough to load a quilt and get it stitching. It's not a big quilt, so I knew it would only take a couple of hours. I used that time to put the binding on the Scrappy Mountain Majesty, and choose a backing for the next top to go on the machine.
I still haven't finished this binding, I'll do that while the next quilt stitches out. I sew it down by machine, so it won't take long and then that will be another quilt completely finished, my third for this year. It's been a long while since I had a string of finishes.
I love that the Statler stitches away while I'm getting the next top ready. If I had my act together I could always have a top ready to load, and yet I don't have my act together. I live in hope....
Your quilt on the frame has such a restful feel about it. It think it's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteCannot decide which quilt I prefer - they are both gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteHope you are feeling better soon. xx
Great that you actually managed to quilt something of your own, you must have a bigger pile of tops than I do.
