Not sure if I will be able to participate in the May Doll Swap as I have tenosynovitis in my right thumb/wrist (dominant hand of course )...so very painful and swollen! Now wearing a wrist brace and prescribed some meds to reduce the swelling and hopefully the pain. I cannot do anything involving my thumb...something as simple as picking up a cup of coffee causes excrutiating pain...! I am going to follow doctors orders for a few weeks in hopes that the pain and inflamation resides. I will continue to follow the board, henpecking the computer keyboard...LOL! Please excuse any typos!!!

Little RoO, I'm thinking of that as well. I saw an idea that I've been meaning to do: making a stitch book! My machine has 79 stitch settings. The suggestion was that you stitch a line of each and do subsequent lines with varying the stitch lengths. Maybe this afternoon!

With being a young Mother of 2. I can understand how life can get so busy. Don't let yourself get overwhelmed. Do what you can do! Remember you don't have to do what they suggest and can do something real simple. Whatever you decide, if we don't see you in May, we know we will see you when you get caught up on things. You were a great partner!!!!!
I do have a bit of an over-achiever streak and have to be reminded to relax sometimes I think simple is the key!

Oh wow, those are some incredible quilts! I love all of the details with the lace and embroidery! I think I may have to come up with something, but I'll be following Almond's advice to keep it simple
I love my old Bernina 801, but this is one of those times that a machine with a plethora of stitches would be fun! ....maybe I'll have to swing by my Mom's to play with her toys!

I particularly love this month's theme because I can hoop it and embellish by hand in the evenings. I always feel guilty if I don't relax with my husband in the evening after dinner, but also have a hard time just "sitting around watching tv" -- so this is the perfect compromise!
