it’s a quilt top!

Wednesday, February 9, 2005

I assembled Isabelle’s quilt top last night. Now I have to buy batting, backing and the fabric to add a border like this. I am thinking a thin strip of green, a wide strip of pink and then green or purple binding.

I am unexpectedly getting on a plane home in less than 2 hours as my Nana has had a heart attack. She is as ok as she can be, but it was severe and they are running out of options to help her so Isabelle and I are off to see her while we can. I am taking the makings of Carla with me, but don’t be surprised if I come home with a Sophie instead (not made from Cotton Tape of course). I grabbed some Cascade 220 from the stash just in case Carla is too much to get my head around while away.

I may or may not be able to post while I am gone. And now I am off to deal with the fact that I had a HCG trigger shot this morning to make me ovulate, right before I got the news that I won’t be here to make use of it.

Ugh. That is a lot of stress. Especially combined with the great dose of hormones in that HCG shot! Nothing like a little of that to make you feel wonderful! (Yes, I am being sarcastic. :-D ) The quilt is lovely! I wish mine looked that nice. I tend to rush though….and things get out of line.
