The walker may stay longer than expected. It becomes useful at the end of a long day even once most of the recovery is finished. DH thought he'd be finished with his crutches and walker in the first month, but entering month 3, he's still using his.

I've been on & off crutches for the last 3 years. I hate them and the necessity of them when I need them. I hope Ashlea will recover quickly and well enough she won't need help walking for many years.
We got more mail today!
All very nice blocks again including some paisley. I love paisley. I love the bold patterns and bright colors.
Anyway, we received packages from Stitchnripper, ThayerRags and Caroline S. today.
Thank you all very much!

Awesome news! Saturday is better. No matter how nice the people have been I'm pretty sure she just wants to go home at this point. Home is going to be hard too seeing that it's not going to be the same home as when this all started. She's going to have a lot of new things to get used to.
So much for her getting the quilt while still in rehab but it sure beats her being in rehab until it's done.

The rest will probably be done on my Rodney machine-mainly because trying to do a good job on the bigger project while I'm still learning to treadle wouldn't be a good idea. I need to get more comfortable treadling first. If I screw up a block and have to start over, no big deal. The main quilt is a different story. Rodney

What's the point in having a kid and a sewing machine if you don't start a sweatshop anyway?

Wonderful for Ashlea to be going home the day before her birthday. This way she'll wake up to the wonderful gift of being in her own home on her birthday.
And, Rodney, the quilt was started while she was struggling in rehab, and will continue on with her as she keeps working to fully recover in her home, so it will still be closely linked with her own journey. :-)
