Happy July 4th!!

When I put out my summer decor stuff this year, I realized I needed a summer table runner for the morning room!

So, when I went looking through my drawers of kits and pre-cuts, I found this cute little kit from Connecting Threads.

The pattern is from Fig Tree and Co. called Lollipops!

I loved making this and it was quick and easy, too!!

  3. Your table runner is lovely, Polly. I hope all goes well on Monday. Think of all the hand stitching you can do while resting your leg! xx

  5. Good wishes for a quick recovery from the knee surgery. I'm sure it will go smoothly. And it will give you some time for hand work while you rest.

  15. Good luck Monday morning!!! I've had both knees done and it's the best thing I ever did. The therapy is a lot of work, but worth the effort. When I had the 2nd. one done 4 years ago, I was up and walking about 3 hours after surgery. Needless to say, I was a bit surprised when they came to take me for a walk around the halls, but the sooner you start exercising your new knee, the better off you'll be. I had a fabulous surgeon, who travels around the country teaching his technique, so I was very fortunate indeed. The only time a walker was necessary, was in the hospital, and when I came home, a cane was all that was necessary. I will pray that you are just as lucky as I was. Keep us updated on your progress, but I'm sure nurse Yogi will be the best medicine you could ever want. I will be thinking and praying for you on Monday morning. lv2bquilting2@comcast.net
