Wordless Wednesday ;)

Celtic Solstice Mystery Quilt Photos

As always I took far too many photos 

and then couldn't decide which ones showed off the quilt best...

So here follows a photo-overload of the finished quilt.

Thanks to Bonnie Hunter for a great pattern 

and to my friends Evelyn and Jim for wanting a quilt

so much that I got off my 

stiff and painful rear and made it 

while waiting for my plate removal operation...

Interruptions in Scheduling

Thank you for all the well wishes for my leg plate removal,

but sadly my operation got cancelled the day before

I was meant to go into hospital!!

I'm hoping to get a new date soon.

It feels like my life and sleep are back on hold

until I get this plate out 

and all the manic preparations 

were for (almost) nothing as it will be at least a month 

before I get another operation appointment...

So what do you do when you're feeling blue?

Why, you piece a simple quilt really quick!!

But how do you do it if you're little 'helper'

wants to 'help'??

 With great difficulty! That's how LOL!

Phew!

Next week I go into hospital

for a plate removal from my femur. 

Knowing that I'll be on crutches for 6 weeks

meant that I was severely motivated to finish this quilt...

And with the help of the whole family,

and 2 solid days of quilting,

it's done!

Just the binding now...

Thank you Bonnie for another great Mystery!
