    You sure did Izy....I'm proud of you!!....lol!
    I'm feeling much better although the shoulder is still giving me some gip. I cant sew for very long at a time but I hate sitting around twiddling my thumbs, so Ive at least come up with a way of KNITTING quite comfortably! I prop up my right arm on 4 cushions, and they carry the weight of my arm.......so far ive knitted myself a cardigan and Ive just started a little jacket for my yet-to-be-born great grandaughter!!
    Luckily I'd already made her a couple of quilts when she was just a tadpole!

    Karen - I am glad that you are on the mend...sort of!! At least you have managed to overcome the restricitons and found some way to be creative...I can't imagine what I used to do with my time before I took up quilting....ooooohhhhh yes I do..I used to have a very clean and tidy house, and a huge garden without a weed in sight..Ohhh and my plants never lacked water or attention..... :? :? :roll: :lol:

    :D A great job! I love it too! The sashing is a great print to set off the blocks. I am truly inspired!

    Your quilt is the perfect size. He'll be using it until it falls apart. I can see him learning to walk, dragging it behind him. You'll have to replace the binding several times before it finally wears out!!!
