More Waiting

Saw the surgeon today.  Still do not know the surgery date.  Now things are hinging on the MRI, also need to see the Plastic Surgeon and my Oncologist again.  At that point either 2 or 3 of them will get together and decide what needs to be done.  They are quite concerned about the spot on my back.  So more wait and see.

This afternoon got some dates & times.

MRI this friday morning
Plastic Surgeon 21th

Once the MRI results are in will see the oncologist to go over the results.

In the meantime my hands have been too shaky for handwork plus my heart has not been into it.  Tomorrow I will try again to get something done no matter how small.

Absent a lot lately

Will be posting sporadically for the next little while.  Just found out today that I have cancer again.  When I am able to work on things will post otherwise see you in about 6 months.

CQJP June & July blocks

Just noticed that I never posted a picture of my June block so here it is.  The lace was dyed in or shortly after taking the dyeing class with Kathy Shar.




Here is my July block which I just got finished today.

W.I.P August 4, 2015

I have so many projects on the go per usual.

This is what I am mainly concentrating on currently. Learning Thread Painting.  For those that do not know this is usually done with 1 strand of floss and with multi colors for shading.  It is a lot of work but well worth it.


If you are interested go poke around NeedlenThread.  That is where I found the class for this technique.  My husband had bought me a book from Trisha Burr that I just fell in love with but needed way more practice and this is finally sinking in.

Big news for me

One of my blocks is in the Crazy Quilt Quarterly Magazine.  For some it might not be a big deal but I have only been doing CQ for about 1 1/2 years so to me it is a BIG deal.  It is under the reader submission area.
