Due to health issues & having both knees totally replaced last July, I haven't felt the best. I did join the Doll Quilt Swap in Oct 09 & it was great. Eddie from AR was my partner & he made the cutest 1930s retro fabrics with small blocks/pieces & it is adorable. If you look on the Oct 09 Doll Quilt Swap site, you'll see the one he sent me & the one I sent him, with Sunbonnet Sue & Sam. If you look at his tutorials on this site & his over 25 quilts since last May, you know this doll quilt is gorgeous. Also, he sent me a Autumn pumpkin hot pad that I use for a large coaster beside my recliner. After Thanksgiving, I turned it over to the dark green side & continue to use it. Everyone who comes my apt sees it & comments on how much they like it. I tell them it was made by a man & their eyes get wide as I explain how we swap doll quilts.
I couldn't get to Post Office, so my son came to mail it for me. I did do my little shopping tonight without my cane. That is such a liberating feeling to be able to walk independently again. I will be joining another DQS, probably by Spring. I'm looking forward to doing it again.
