It’s a beautiful area, as you know because Grants Pass & Riddle are in similar forested areas with lots of rivers.

Btw, I wanted to thank all of you who sent up prayers or well wishes my way. I’m feeling better now. I deal with a couple of chronic GI conditions plus am disabled from a back injury from way back in 2004 & live in pain every day. Lately though I got put on a new antidepressant that’s really helped with my motivation & since then is when I finally became active on this board, only 2-3 months ago despite being a member for years. Depression really had me sucked down more than I realized & now that I’m able to get out of bed more often & can sew again I’m doing even better. Thank God above. Here’s hoping & praying all of you are doing well this Holiday season. Happy Thanksgiving!

Craftyjulz, hang in there. Back issues SUCK, I can sympathize. Glad you are doing better!
I will throw this question out there, why is it that women have depression issues more than men? Must be part of the side effect of being born with ovaries 🤣.
Keep up the creative spirit, I always start things and then they dissipate like the clouds in the sky, one of myADD issues.
If you have an emotion that bothers you just try to let it out early so it doesn’t eat you alive. I’m bad for that one and then I eat eat eat.

Remember, I did say that my quilt went off the tracks.
Unfortunately, the yardage I chose didn't play well with this mystery quilt, so I had to do some re-arranging and this is what I ended up with. I still like it, it just isn't the original plan.

Very cute, Watson. I need to get busy on mine again. I have one more row of sashing to sew on. I will then add a border all around and add flying geese around that border. This will be the first time I have tried a flying geese border so we will see how it works.
