Mine are going out tomorrow if the weather cooperates - gave them to my brother as I worked every hour the PO was open last week. He gave me a ride home from work tonight as I fell on the ice yesterday (in the middle of a downtown street, and not one person stopped to see if I was ok and I almost got run over!) and dislocated my kneecap and my knee joint, plus both hips and a shoulder. When I got in the car, there they were on the seat! I could strangle him, but I can't drive till I come off the painkiller, so will have to play nice for now. Stitched up something extra tonight to stick in there as an apology for the wait.

Sorry to hear about your fall. Isn't it a shame that this world has turned into a "it's all about me" place instead of looking out for each other? I would have helped you!

DJ That is awesome! who'da thunk! I'm still working on the block with your FQ's. Sorry, I've been sick, but I'll post it as soon as I get it done.

quiltingdragon sorry to hear about your fall, ouch and so sad that no one offered any assistance. I'll be saying some extra prayers for your healing. I took a slip a few years ago in a parking lot, both feet went straight out from under me and I landed on my bum, plenty of padding there, just some sore muscle and bruising. But a lady did stop to help me.

Now are one of the packages in your brothers car for me?? This happened to Brenda last month with her son and one was my package, and so if one of yours were for me -still waiting for my second swap-I'm going to feel jinxed. But then I could use a good laugh.

Received my lovely Feb FQ's yesterday from Karen W. from Mo. Not sure of her board name, but love the choices for this swap, many thanks.

Elisabrat 02-24-2013 07:46 AM

wowthose are so pretty! I love your batik and the gold then of course the one right next to that one.. great selection of fabrics once again. a bit scared of next months sure hoping that April is an easier combo to pull together .. still waiting on the spring flowers :) Off to check the fabrics for my white selections. this could be an interesting combo I pull together and most assuredly will NOT all match with each other.

I know my people are, see post #282. I put something extra in there as an apology for being late - hopefully they make it out of the midwest before the second round of snow hits!

QuiltingKrazy 02-26-2013 07:21 PM

Anything good is always worth waiting for! I do hope you are feeling better after your fall. I don't understand how people are to scared, to busy, to lazy to offer a person in need just a little help!

Here is a picture (finally) of the two batches of wonderful fat qtrs I received from sewellie and quiltingdragon. they both sent "extras"! Thank you ladies, now to decide what to do with these fabrics. They all go together quite well.
