Yahoo I just got my quilt blocks today and they are all Beautiful. I can't wait to get started on putting them together for a wall hanging or I may join the next quilt swap and make a bigger one to put on the back of my sofa

As long as I have people that are interested in joining the swaps...I will have them. I know I said a large wallhanging for my front porch. But, what I really desire is a large quilt for my bed. I plan on embroidering the signatures with black embroidery thread so it won't fade if I wash it. Right now I have a total of 22 blocks so it will be awhile before I have enough for a large quilt. I am so glad that everyone is enjoying the blocks that they receive.

I thank everyone concerning my health. It looks like I am headed down the path of a hysterectomy. The doctor wants to treat the large cysts on my ovaries first. On top of that, I have a very large uterus. The tests have not come back yet completely. In the mean time I take pain medicine. I thank God that my child bearing years are over. Let me restate that, Thank God I am done having children. Again, "Thank You" to everyone that has inquired about my health.

Julie I am so sorry to hear about your possible hysterectomy. My step-mom is having the procedure done this June. I know that it can be scary. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

To all the ladies who made these wonderful blocks: You all did such a great job! All of the blocks are so pretty! I am so excited to start this really great quilt. Whether it turns into a lap quilt or one for my bed, I am going to treasure it!

Dear Julie, You will probably feel a lot better after your surgery. I sure did. I fought having one for about 4 years and finally had to give in. You will be in our thots and prayers. Don't overdo if and when you have your surgery. Smiles, Beth
You can never be to kind! |
