Long Time Gone!!!

My post heading is nothing to do with the pattern

from Jen Kingwell which I wrote about a while ago.

This is giving a nod to my not posting for over two weeks - again!!

Let's start with a sunrise yesterday.

The reason for my continued absence

was my husbands'  health

problem, thanks to a mosquito bite right on the elbow.

Won't give the gory details but after visits to emergency,

three days on IV antibiotics for huge infection and three weeks of oral,

the elbow is slowly getting back to normal after growing to the size

of a grapefruit!

So, quilting once again took a back seat but I had been playing

with Gypsy Wife - two different versions of one block, deciding which

one will fit in best

My Chinese Coins took a back seat, way behind now as this week

was the last week for a link up. Below is a mock up on my

design wall from before my husband became unwell

I'm just playing around and have quite a bit more stitching to take

care of, hopefully next post will show progress - fingers crossed.

I have lovely hibiscus flowering in the garden, two below, and Leila now a one year old 

deciding whether to go up onto the roof  and watch the birds.

Back during the week - once again, fingers crossed!!

Enjoy the weekend.
I'm off over to visit Ann and Kaja
for a quick peek of my Chinese Coins so far.
