Beautiful quilt. I had my left knee replaced in Dec 2009. No more pain there!! Hope yours is as successful. Glad you are getting better.

Welcome back to sewing, if you are like me it is great therapy, relaxing and calming.

Thank you for all your nice words, they are very encouraging! :-D

Knee surgery is scheduled for November 3. So sewing is a priority right now (as always). It will be a six month recovery.

The pattern I used was in the "Thimbleberries Big Book of Quilt Blocks". There is a total of five quilts in the book for Block of the Month quilts. I was following along with the Quilt Guild but then got ill so once I came home from the hospital I caught up with the group, actually went ahead and finished my top. I can't wait to show the ladies.
