A Quiet Week.

 A second visit to the Doctor and more antibiotics were in order and it's been a quiet week with not even any stitching tasking place for a few days. Thankfully I seem to be finally getting over this illness and, although not back to normal yet, I can see that I will soon be able to get back to normal activities.
 Prior to the break in stitching I did manage to finish off another block for my Chester County Criswell Quilt. I am still catching up but you can see I have finished 13 now and will keep going when time allows. I'd be stitching them more quickly if I had taken more time to prepare blocks for stitching but they will be done eventually.

 I also stitched 4 more diamonds in half inch hexies for my "Norma Mary" Insanity Quilt, using 1930s repro fabric and I also stitched a few more neutral hexagons and another diamond for my scrappy Insanity Quilt. Even small amounts of time can be productive as long as I have enough papers and fabric cut.
 I hope those of you in winter are staying well and that our friends in the northern hemisphere are enjoying some sunny days of stitching.
 Hugs, Jan Mac

I love your fabric choices for the CCCQ blocks - hope to see them (and you)in person sooner rather than later. Get well soon!

do hope you are back on top of the world soon and all will be well, wonder if it was some bug you caught on the plane.

Glad to hear that you are getting better. I agree with Sharon I love your CCCQ fabrics and it's great to see your finished blocks all laid out.
