I started putting the rows together of a new baby quilt.
I used a charm pack of Bonnie and Camille's "Scrumptious"
and other B&C fabrics. I had just enough different ones that I did
not have to double up on any of them.
When I laid the rows out to take a photo, I saw my mistake.
I forgot to turn the triangles around. Lucky I only did two rows
like this so not much unpicking to be done.
Then I worked on the applique of the third block
of my "Happy Stitcher" hanging.
Making progress.
I'm doing all the applique first and then I'll do the stitching part.
Thank you to
Chez for hosting us last night.
You can see what others got up to
here.
Wednesday night I got a phone call from Austin. "Nelson's broken his nose"!
Then the photo came. Mitchell, Austin, Nelson, Paris and Steph have been
playing netball this year. Austin finished a few weeks ago
when he popped his good shoulder. Now Nelson!
So off to the Austin Hospital.
I met them at the hospital. For the first time ever,
we walked into an empty waiting room in emergency.
Mitchell, Steph and Laura stayed in the waiting room. Poor Laura.
It was her elbow that got Nelson. She was so upset.
The doctors were more worried about blood clots but all was good.
They don't think it's broken although there may be a slight fracture
which will heal itself. His nose looks quite crooked but it appears to
be the swelling on the side he took the main hit.
As the swelling is going down, it doesn't look as crooked.
Today the bruising is starting to come out.
And I thought netball was a non-contact sport!
Think they should just stick to football!
Never a dull moment at MacDonald's Patch!
