Have to get to the LAQ to deliver my quilt.

"See" you all in a couple weeks, I'm sure when I get back the blocks will be will under construction. Be safe, ya'll!
OK that is jealousy inducing I hope you have an amazing time I can't wait to heal about it and see pictures. I'm sure your bubble wrap will be quite the stylish statement.

Oh Cheesehead that is nightmare inducing. I'm embarased to admit to the number of phones I have lost or damaged to water.

Invasive squamous cell carcinoma. We will be off to UC San Francisco next week. The cancer was in all the tissue removed, not just the tumor. My MIL is trying to be positive, but she is real with me. We had a good talk this morning. I told her we are all in this together.
Have4 I am so sorry to hear about your MIL good luck in San Francisco I hope you get the best possible news for her.

Have4boys, I am sorry to hear about your MIL. Hope they can successfully treat.

I am wearing my bubble wrap suit even though it is well over 80 degrees today. Just to be safe.
Good call on they bubble wrap lady you can never be to careful out there.


Things are pretty good here the color in my foot is almost back to normal I wish the swelling would also go down though. I still can't wear my beloved flip flops but it only hurts when I use my toes to grip orkick the wall or something now....... Have I mentioned that I'm a klutz????

I have Janice holding my shipment till early July Mr. Bill and I are leaving Thursday for a wedding in Lake Tahoe then a road trip to Strasburg Colorado to see our youngest daughter and the home she just purchased. When we return I'll have a quilt top to complete then I'll get on all your beautiful fabrics I'm looking forward to petting and beating them into submission for a block you will be proud to include in your quilts. Even with a bit of a late start I I have NEVER missed a deadline and I don't intend to start now.
