A busy weekend had a big finale!
My dear Mum fell in the garden yesterday & badly broke her ankle.
A couple of screws & a plate & she is on the mend, but we have a long road ahead.
I am hoping she & dad will come to stay with me for a while, she will be non weight bearing for 6-8 wks & I cannot see them managing at home through this.
Mum is keen to come but dad is lacking insight as to what this means...
mum now needs care to get her back to mobility.
Stormy waters ahead!
So, feeling quite stressed over this & some other family dramas, what do you do?
SEW!
I had this jelly roll quilt cut out...& today I put the bulk of the top together..it just needs borders.
Quite soothing to be repetitively sewing...calming colours...looks good!
Through life's ups & downs,sewing can be a good relief!
Hope all is well in your world
