DH said I need to write a how-to book on the fabric folding I do That'd be great! And, I agree with your husband!

kimber OFFLINE Posts: 86	Thank you so much! I don't go outside of my box very often (I tend to be a pattern quilter) so I tend to amaze myself when it turns out so well

kimber OFFLINE Posts: 86	Thanks so much, Ritzy! Patti - bummer we won't meet today, but you need to get better!! I'm so sorry you've been dealing with muscle spasms. Those are no fun at all! Judy - I think Pat just proved you wrong It sounds like quite the weird position to quilt in, but where there's a will... Pat - you're nuts!! Well, at least extremely determined

Way back in 1986, I had bunions removed on both my feet at the same time. The night before the surgery, I finished basting a large Lone Star quilt. The surgery was done outpatient, and when I got home that night, I wanted to start quilting, but since I'd had a lot of medication, DH said, "Wait until tomorrow," and I did. But the next morning, I found that I could hand quilt lying on my back with my feet up on a huge pile of pillows. Over the next 6 weeks, I did get that whole quilt hand quilted, working for hours every day, still with my feet up on all those pillows. When the hoop needed to be moved, DH did it for me, bless his heart. I still have the quilt. It's called Midnight Rainbow With Amish Ancestors, and there's a pic of it on my webshots page in the quilts album.

Kimber, I'm dying to go and meet you and Ruthann. But unfortunately I've been in bed for 2 weeks with a muscle spasm. Yesterday I tried sitting for 4 hours and did OK but today I've been sitting for almost an hour and I can't stand anymore. If I don't get to work on Monday, I'll be in big doodoo. Anyway, I think I have to pass on tomorrow. (loud sigh and groan). But it sounds like a great session and I'm envious you and Ruthann will meet.
