SHINGLES!. can I hear a collective gasp?!! I am a dum dum. When the rash showed up on my hand I thought, "If I can get that rash cleared up , I am home free." So I kept anti-itch creams and lotions on it and I only have one faint reddish patch now...BUT, when the rash started to clear, the PAIN hit. My whole body feels like I been in a fight and the fight is continuing without me defending myself. And SO tired. After reading up on it, because it was on my hand and not near my face, I am not in danger from complications. The meds they give will not shorten it or relieve it. The body has to take care of it. Well this body needs a swift kick!
Needles to say, sewing has not been top priority. I have not digitized but one design. I feel whupped after being up a couple hours. So when I need to go to town, I start early and get er done. I am getting up earlier so I am hopefully catching up on the rest. My naps are shorter but still needed. My house? I don't even wanna look at it. I have a quilt to get done, shoot I have a quilt to even get started!
I finished the second one late but #3 grandson did not mind.
I used sheets with the angry bird print on them. I searched and couldn't find regular fabric with that design. Only fleece, not what I wanted. So here is what I ended up with.
While he and older brother stayed with me for a week, his mom redid their bedroom. He saw the quilt as I was finishing it and wouldn't even let me embroider his name on it...he wanted it THEN. So he got it. This was a quilt as you go project.
