Sorry to have been so quiet on the boards of late. I've been off of the computer and keeping my legs up to prevent what is with me a recurring problem with cellulitis. This has meant little but sewing a few yo-yo's, and I've also had to leave a queen-size quilt in progress on the back burner.

Just need one or two good days to get some serious sewing done (including the dolls for the holiday swap--I haven't forgotten, ladies!). Just wanted to keep y'all from worrying too much, I'm still alive! :)

I have just recently had cellulitis too.... yes, keeping your feet up is the answer.... I had antibiotics as well...

What a fantastic idea, Patrice....you could use a flat bed tray (the short TV trays) with a light portable. That's perfect for bedridden quilter/sewers. I'm sending this off to one of the charities today who works with the elderly. Many have tried to do hand quilting so they could still work in bed.

Rebecca,
Wishing you the very best and lots and lots of rest. I hope you're feeling much better soon.

Feel better and take care.

If anyone ever figures out how to sew with your feet propped up, please let me know. A half-day of sewing and my feet look like loaves of bread.

Janstar 12-08-2008 08:01 PM

Get better fast!

beachlady 12-09-2008 05:49 AM

Sorry I missed this post before. Hope you are getting better!! It makes it even harder when you want to sew and can't. Take care.

Grandma Cindy 12-09-2008 08:07 PM

Bev - what a precious picture......it should make her feel a little better........

Butterflyspain 12-10-2008 06:01 AM

Sorry you are not feeling so good, wondered where you were. Will get round to sending out my post to you very soon, I am floundering under a load of pressure at the moment.

Do hope you get to feeling better. There is nothing worse then a quilter down for a bit!:))This might one of those good times for R&R...grab a notebook to take notes for inspiration and ideas. Drag out the old magazines and books for future inspiration and projects. A good time to plan ahead:0)Hope the sun shines your way soon-Skeat

Oh, Skeat, what a happy thought. I'll have to remember that one. It's been a while since I've taken the magazines down.
