Yes, I had a problem logging on. Got an error message but now am on and glad to be in this part of the board.
Sara, Glad to hear the dr. had identified your health problem and can not work on treating it. Hope you are feeling better soon.
I just finished my last block. I managed to get them done much quicker than I thought. My sister is spending the majority of her time at mom's bedside and I am there 2-3x a week right now and come in if there is a major concern. This made it great for sewing to keep my mind off things there. We also had a double death in our extended family last night. Unexpected and tragic. My cousin and her husband succumbed to carbon monoxide poising in their sleep. It has all of us spinning. Still so many questions but all in God's hands. She was a fantastic quilter too and a great crafter.
I will get my blocks out in the mail Monday or Tuesday so they will get off to you Janice as soon as I can.

Julia, you have my condolences on the tragic loss of your cousin and her DH. Such a sad situation. It sounds like you and your sister are helping to make your mother as comfortable as you can. Not everyone is lucky enough to have family who can help as you both are. <3

Oh Julia, I am so sorry to hear about your cousin and husband. What a challenging time.
Sounds like you've worked out a good situation for you with your sister and Mom. I'm glad sewing is therapeutic.
Lots of hugs coming your way.

Lovely blocks! Please try to arrange shipping so that they arrive during the week rather than on the weekend, if possible. Thank you.
