November recap............

I finished sewing two quilt tops in November.  The layout for this one was started in May and put back up on the design wall in November.  I added another row on two sides and then spent a few days fine tuning it.  It is a little under 34" square.


I started sewing the little 4" sixteen patch blocks on November 1st and added 8" blocks and the star by the third week.  Here is the post where I explain how this quilt evolved.  It is 39" x 51.5".  

I taught one colorwash class in November, had family staying with me for parts of 4 days, and hosted an art quilters sewing day.  

Hopefully I can get some finishing done in December.  It has been 3 months since my pacemaker surgery so I think all restrictions on arm movement should be over but I don't see the surgeon/cardiologist until the 14th so I won't overdo it before then.

I think you've done brilliantly considering you were in hospital such a short time ago. You are doing the right things and now there's no stopping you! LOL! I love the quilts you have worked on and you are even pottering in the garden - weather permitting. All good for the heart - uplifting sewing sessions and exercise. I'm sure you'll be given a thumbs up by the doc when you go. :D
