I finally was able to work on my Tin Lizzie after 3 months--oh how I missed that baby! This is what I worked on. I did my own quilt to get back in the feel for it. I ran into some problems and did two sections on both sides of the quilt in the borders with huge big loops underneath. Finally found the thread jumped out of a guide. So I finished the rest of the borders and took it off the frame and ripped the bad parts out. Then I put it back on the frame and was able to quilt the parts that I ripped out successfully.

border has leaves quilted.

upside down bird--the whole quilt was loaded that way.

Glad you are back on your feet. Had to be hard even with hand work to do. At least you had pictures to look at on computer to inspire you.
