Quilt in a Day Forums

Hi,

Dunno if anyone is sewing or checking in but here goes anyhoo....

I'm ripping out (frogging) some quilting I did in the Paducah project. I didn't like how some of it turned out. I knew it would bug me, so a-ripping I will go....!!!

Wooo Hooooo!!!!!

No sewing yet... does washing fabric and cutting strips count... I am preparing the fabric I need for CindyB's soldier quilt... I am hoping to get at least 4 blocks done for her... one with each of our family members names on them! Aghhhhhh! I hate ripping out!!! I love the term frogging... haven't heard that one before... I'll have to liberate that phrase from you...

Cheers!

Good evening! I've decided to press and trim my French Roses tonight while I'm waiting for DH to come home. I'll pop in now and then to see what everyone is up to.

Alina,

"Frogging" is a term I picked up from this forum. I cannot take credit for that

Hope you get all your blocks done

Lee,

I hope your DH has an uneventful drive home. How's your hand/wrist?

Just got back from the lqs. Went to get the BOM and ended up with 8 yard of fabric and a pattern. Just what I need. lol I'm going to work on putting the t-blocks on the quilt I pulled out of the drawer a couple weeks ago. Hope everyone is enjoying a fabulous day. Lori

No sewing tonight, but I am cutting out strips and squares from scrap fabrics. I am trying to organize my sewing room because the fabrics have just taken over every empty space. I have bins with scraps, baskets with FQs and piles of folded yardage on the floor, I feel like I am drowning in here.LOL

Wish me luck, I'm going back in to the mess.LOL

Hi Caren,
Last I heard my DH was around Cleveland, so he's getting closer. So far so good.
Thank you for asking about my wrists. It's kind of hard to say at this point how they're doing. I'm back to work which causes all sorts of problems. The wrists are healed from teh surgeries but we're trying to get the strength back witout causeing more problems to my elbows. So I'm going to PT twice a week to do just that. It's a slow and uncomfortable process and so far I've not seen any positive results, in fact I'd say at this point it's doing more harm then good. I go back to the doctor on the 19th so we'll see what he thinks. I'm really getting anxious to get this resolved before I go to OH but at this point it doesn't look good.

Working on a black and white "Tossed Nine Patch" to donate to the local Relay for Life to be raffled off in June.

That sounds nice, Debbie. I hope you'll share pictures when it's done.
I have my FRs all pressed. Now on to trimming...

Zfatcat---I think you probably really NEEDED those 8 new yards & pattern I hope your work night goes well.

DewDew--I wish you luck organizing your sewing room You can do it!!

Lee--PT hurts. I hope it's a means to an end for your suffering.
