to sew any more than 2 borders? I was exhausted by last night. I spent the day with all of the follow up details for my dad, social security, bank accounts, etc. Then in the late afternoon I decided to start uninstalling programs from my oldest laptop so I can pass it on to some one else. I went to bed a lot earlier than usual.
I treated myself to 4 new half yards of batiks. Have I told you that I like color?
Here is a link to the full picture of yesterday's table runner, scroll down to the third one.
I've enjoyed each step of the way on the borders quilt.

You have been through a LOT and I'm glad you're being gentle with yourself...
oh, I love the optical illusion of the quilt! I have been following along as you keep adding rows, and I am so surprised with the illusions created! WOW! Very cool.
ReplyDeleteWanda - what kind of batting do you use in your table runners to keep then nice and flat?
ReplyDeleteSometimes you just have to give into what your body is saying to you. I love the new treat for yourself. The colors are just fabulous. Thanks for the link to the entire picture of the table runner. Love it!
ReplyDeleteThat photo of the table runner shows how true to your style you are. Love it!
ReplyDeleteThe quilt is wonderful to look at -- really draws one in!
ReplyDeleteI'm not surprised you were exhausted -- you've dealt with a lot in the past days. Remember you have to take care of you too.
How big is that now?
ReplyDeleteYummy to the quilt! Yummy to the batiks! and to the table runner, also Yummy! A feast for the eyes.
ReplyDeleteHang in there. Your Dad must be really glad to have you to help. I know its exhausting. It becomes our turn to take care of them.
ReplyDeleteWhat you are going through is stressful. It's no wonder you're tired. I'm glad you got yourself some nice new bright batiks. You will work wonders with them, as you do with everything I've seen. I love the table runners.
ReplyDeleteYou have shared your creativity with us, while caring for your parents and their many phases of health issues. Just know I appreciate your dedication to them and to all of us out here checking in on your daily blog. You are my hero.

Hi Wanda
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had brain drain for sure.
Thanks for showing us the whole table runner (plus a couple other options). All of them table-worthy.
Take care.

ReplyDeleteHi Wanda, I hope you are feeling better by the time this note reaches you. I must admit I have stash envy. I love your new batiks!
