Tomorrow, finally!!

Tomorrow is the day I’m having surgery to fix my thumb!!  It’s been stiff, clicking and hurting for over 8 weeks now.  I am sooooooo ready for it to be fixed!  I go in at 10:00am and surgery is at 11:30 and should take like 15 minutes, total, so they say !!  I hope I hope I hope…

Because I’m not sure how they will bandage me up, I’m not sure how functional my right hand will be for a while… so you may not hear from me on my blog for a while… I’m right handed so it will affect so much that I do…sigh…but will fix the problem forever!!  YAY!

I did  finish a door quilt that I started at retreat, yesterday.  It’s hanging on my  front door!  It was a panel that I just pieced some simple squares around using stash scraps!

I really like it and it looks awesome on my red front door!  I’m hoping to find a pretty summer flag with a floral/bike theme to put out with it!!

Yogi slept in his bed on my sewing table

as I quilted it on Saturday morning.

Man, I wish I could sleep like that…sigh… maybe tomorrow after the surgery…with drugs!!  LOL!! 

Keep your fingers crossed for me, OK?

    Hope all goes well tomorrow, and that your recovery goes smoothly. I think you should just sit with Yogi on your lap and have someone serve you meals in front of the TV!

    Oh how pretty!! I have a panel I have had no idea how to make into a cute wall hanging. You have inspired me to get it out and make something like what you have done. Thank you!

    I'll say a prayer that your procedure is all you hope it will be. You'll be amazed what you will be able to do with your left hand by Friday.

    Your door quilt is lovely.

    I guess saying "thumbs-up" to your door hanging would be inappropriate at this time.

    (but I hope you got a giggle anyways)
