subject: I`m still here are you?

Hi Julia,
Yes the internet has taken it's toll that is for sure.  Besides my board the 
only one left in the area is the Hub.  But as long as I have one user I'm 
going to hang in there.  Some of them may come back.
Since my injury all I can do is cut and stitch blocks.  By the time I can get 
out of bed and actually walk again I may actually have enough blocks for a 
quilt made unless my fabric runs out. (It could happen)  I have a friend  
that 
has offered to baste the layers together once I'm ready but I'm not sure I 
could handle all that weight on my legs.  I can only sit up with my legs 
straight out and that makes everything more difficult.  Oh yeah!  I've been 
making some rainbow ripple afghans for babies. (Not mine thanks God!)  My 
great-niece is expecting and 2 gals that I was working with when I got hurt. 
I started the first one last Monday and it's half done.  I got sick of 
embroidery so I've put that aside for a while.  I've also been working on a 
scrap happy wild geese pattern and a Batik bouquet.  These are blocks of the 
month offered by Summer House.  The Batik bouquet is a pattern that I 
personally have not seen before.  It is actually a vase with triangles over 
the top that are suppose to represent the "flowers"  It's going to be set in 
on the bias so that may get tricky for me.  I have to admit to still being a 
novice.  But I keep trying.
Well the old knee is trying to flop around on me so I better stop for now. 
Stay as sweet as you have always been and when I can I'll post messages to. I 
do get to read the mail as my dear husband d\l it for me and prints it out.  
I 
need to get stock in the paper company .
Bye for now.
Dot
