I'm not part of this particular quilt-along but am really enjoying your beautiful work. I have a question: what does FWS stand for??? I've seen the various posts & groups and I'm baffled!!! Thanks for 'educating' me.

QuiltE, Dubib...I know we didn't catch it from each other but it's sure no fun being sick. I've slept downstairs in the recliner all week so DH could sleep without me hacking beside him. I can't remember feeling this bad for this long for ever. I haven't sewn a stitch in 3 days....so sad. Sorry you had to cancel your Brady celebration, Dubib. Maybe we all could use the old fashioned hot toddy my Mom used to give us. Too bad I don't have any whiskey in the house!

Oh GG what a good idea. There is some whiskey in the cupboard here. I'll have ta ask DH how old it is. Does whiskey go bad? (I bet it's over 7 or 8 yrs old.)
I did make myself some lemon tea w/splenda in it & that feels good on the throat.

Checking in from sick bay .... I think we went round this once before together?

I've been salt water gargling and sniffing vicks melted in boiling water ....... and drinking LOTS of water!

GGal ... You must have had a good Mom!! We never got hot toddies, only mustard plasters ... ick! :(

DublB .. no, whiskey does not go bad ... better with age!

Let us know if you think that "medicine" worked for you.

Yikes hope we aren't in for round two, or is it just a change in weather?
