I have timed myself today for progress...and if I am honest, for control. I am able to stand and work for 15 min before I must sit or lie for dizziness as I recuperated from the effects of the concussion. That means that I can get something done in those 15 min. This top is now finished. Design error...my brain was not working...lattice should have been 2" inch cut and not 1/5 to make quilt less busy with a better place for the eye to rest. What can I say ..glad I could do it at all.
Marni and I have been friends for 20 plus years. When she and her mother, with Dementia drove thru Charlotte to visit my mother with her Parkinson's, I decided to give her a quilt. She will be 60 in September. Since my fall, I have once again realized that we are promised nothing. Living in the day, she chose from four quilts, her birthday quilt. Now...in the present...yes! I thought that the Hourglass was very very appropriate. ( In a less positive vibe, broken dishes could be appropriate too.)
