I'm amazed that you can concentrate on sewing at all. Prayers and positive thoughts being sent your way. And now it looks like I need to add Diann's husband to my prayer list. <br />I need to venture out to the grocery store tomorrow and I'm dreading it. At least I got to spend 3 hours outside working in the garden before a thunderstorm (with hail) struck.<br />Keep your chin up.

Such a worry, especially at this time with the world in turmoil. Guess all we can do with all this is take one day at a time, follow the rules for self isolation, and keep on stitching. And here in NZ we spell the word selvedge, probably because the country was settled by British settlers back in the day!

So far all of my online peeps and occasional phone from and to family and friends have kept that thought at bay.<br />Keep healthy, keep sewing, keep sharing!

I am sorry that you both have to add that to your worry plate. I will add Bruce to and you to my prayers immediately. He is strong and has fought this battle before, but gosh how hard will it be to drop him off?! Your teal projects all look lovely. I am having trouble focusing, too. I went into the sewing room today for a whole 30 minutes. I could be sewing up a storm but alas that 30 minutes is the only time I've spent in there in two weeks. {{{Hugs}}} a bunch for you and Bruce. Sending you both strong vibes and healing prayers. ~smile~ RoseanneHome Sewn By Ushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13943739387560629258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814262528756246837.post-9536718765847136232020-03-29T10:07:52.900-06:002020-03-29T10:07:52.900-06:00My prayers are with you and Bruce, quilting and fr...My prayers are with you and Bruce, quilting and friends will get you thru this.bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01629897751936066519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814262528756246837.post-74291010993260370962020-03-29T07:53:02.998-06:002020-03-29T07:53:02.998-06:00Of course I read to the end!!

I hope that stitching helps a little by giving your brain something to settle on, even just for a few minutes. <br /><br />I'm noticing more folks are making an entire quilt out of the RSC color of the month, and I like this trend! It's fun to see scrappy goodness in monochrome. I love rainbow, and this makes a nice deep dive into each color. If we can't ship our quilts out for a while, we might end up with a rainbow of single color quilts...oh, I hope not!<br /><br />Hang in there.

The anxiety of that on top of the coronavirus stuff is enough to about push you over the edge, isn't it? I say that because we are dealing with it at our house, too. Mike battled cancer in 2008, and it is back. He has surgery on Thursday, and we are so anxious to get it over with. The world wants to throw a lot at us these days... Hugs to you!

All your teal projects are beautiful - it always amazes me how many different blocks are being created and how nice they all look in scraps. I admit - I am terrible at spelling and always do the grammar check... but notice the difference between the US and British colony spellings. 4-5 Quilt finishes this month! Wow. I hope the sewing is a calming presence for you like it is for me. I also agree with you on the human life factor being much more important than the economy.

I'm so grateful for my hobby, being a home-bound one, but am struggling to find a new normal, even though it isn't all that different from the old one. But just knowing I can't go somewhere is hardest! (And my retail store has been deemed essential, so I do head out a few days a week, but you would be shocked at the number of whole families who came in today - I think we're all going a little cabin fever crazy!)
