Good job, relax and take time to heal, everyone needs to be treated like a queen after they have surgery

WOW! I am amazed at how young alot of you are that have already had this surgery. Thank you for your words of encouragement and your advice I will definately use it.

For those who asked I am doing six SB blocks with different dress colors. I have not decided whether to make squares to border the blocks or strips. The frame fabric will be the same as the dress. That is about as far as I have gotten on the design.

Good luck and good thing you have hand sewing to do!
I was 34 and had a very large incision across my abdomen. I thought I would be able to sew no problems, HA, boy was I wrong!!! I didn't have any hand sewing to do and about drove myself crazy thinking of all the things I could be doing with 6 weeks off of work!!!!

I wish you a speedy recovery and you will feel better working on that precious quilt. I did mine at 52 and it was the best thing I ever did. Hallelujah, no more monthly stuff to deal with - oh how great !!!! Your little gran daughter will love her quilt. Thank you for sharing and enjoy your quilting time recuperating.

That is adorable. Can't wait to see the finished one. Please post.
Hope your recovery is quick and you will be up and around soon.

The ladies are right get up and walk a little you don't want clots believe me. I was going to make my GD a Sunbonnet Sue when she was little & never did now she's 18 & probably doesn't want one so do it. Get well too.
