I am stuck in the hospital on-call with a mandatory stay-in-house order because of the Chicago Blizzard :-(. I almost brought my sewing machine and projects...wish I would have now. At least I have my hand quilting with me :-). Will be a long 56 hours:-)

We're stuck too. My mom is in the hospital (knee replacement on Mon) and we are stuck at the hotel down the road. I did bring some hexi's with me for busy work but keep wishing I had my machine. =)

Thank you for being available to those who need you during this storm. I bet you'll get a lot of hand quilting done.

CBS evening news showed a clip of nurses in Chicago preparing to wait out the storm in area hospitals. Bless you for your service.

I have never had to stay at the hospital because of weather but some of my co workers have. I'm glad you have some hand sewing to do to pass the time.
