Not knitting
This one's for you, Maura. I was thinking to myself, "If only I had a place on the Internet I could put pictures of works-in-progress to show other people who live far away without having to e-mail them huge files...."
Anyway. Flying Geese blocks, one after the other, until I realized, by spreading them out on the floor, that I nearly have enough to finish an entire quilt top.
Final layout to be determined, of course. Absent from the picture are the cats, who cannot resist quilts-in-progress. They sit on them, hop on the dining table to sleep on them (bad cats!) and generally can't wait until my back is turned so they can mess with them. J. was up late and watched Spoot pounce on one block, skidding it across the floor with her paws before she turned to pounce on the next. Wee terror.
Off to run errands and go back to the hospital. Dad's doing much better, so I'm very pleased. He did not age into a kindly grandfather type as much as he did a cranky old coot, so I suspect he'll be giving the nurses fits when he's awake enough to start telling them what he wants to do. Which is fine by me.

Ooh, that reminds me - there's a Hancock Fabrics near me that's going out of business.....
Glad to hear your dad is doing better. I wish him the best in a speedy recovery.
I'm glad your father is doing better.
What a fabulously happy quilt top and excellent work on the triangles. i am still plotting (not cutting) my nine patch so your flying geese are great inspiration to get cutting/sewing. Thanks for sharing them with friends who can't stop by and send Mab into hiding...
I was admiring your Fiesta feet. I'm struggling with mine at the moment and wondered if I could ask you a question about turning the heel? I'm Sally on sall@weegiftshop.eclipse.co.uk Many thanks
