I have a lot of 2" strips I cut for the scrappy water color trip around the world (which is still in progress), so at least I can start right in. Of course, there are a bunch of other projects I need to catch up on, but since it doesn't look like spring is coming any time soon, I'll have time to sew before garden season takes over.<br />Good luck with caring for your patient. Hope everything goes smoothly. <br />PatMissPathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807348837446241284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7481577725397935350.post-40056125560810690542018-03-19T16:53:59.348-04:002018-03-19T16:53:59.348-04:00I think you might have me caught in your plan for ...I think you might have me caught in your plan for the Log Cabin!! I have heaps of floral fabrics, Hoffman from any years ago etc. a lot are already cut into strips so I think I'll set aside part of my day to gather things together. I seem to be slower these days, like yourself and Linda health problems are part of life, but this would be a good , relaxing project.<br />Hope Sir Old Man come through his cataract surgery well!Mystic Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13233427034920359604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7481577725397935350.post-36906752840430027912018-03-19T14:04:16.114-04:002018-03-19T14:04:16.114-04:00I used to work in Santa Monica, just a few blocks ...I used to work in Santa Monica, just a few blocks from Mary Ellen's store "Crazy Ladies".

I still have it somewhere. She made it seem doable to me when the whole idea had been quite overwhelming.<br />Oh, tell hubby to be glad he is having his surgery now that they have simplified the eye drop routine. Even just a couple of years ago when my Dad had his done, there were multiple bottles of drops and the schedule was quite confusing. But the results are well worth it! :)Janet O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05083607398709252597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7481577725397935350.post-80983011853392390722018-03-19T09:44:58.358-04:002018-03-19T09:44:58.358-04:00Sir Old Man will be so delighted after his catarac...Sir Old Man will be so delighted after his cataract surgeries, and have the eyesight of a young man again. It's really amazing what can be accomplished within such a short period of time. including the gurney ride to the operating room, the happy juice given through the IV, the surgery and return gurney ride, it took just a few minutes over half an hour. The eye drops before and after surgery are the hardest part of the entire procedure. It's not really hard, just annoying, I guess. Good luck to him.Sylvia Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05428198364925279742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7481577725397935350.post-39507952025468908492018-03-19T09:23:47.483-04:002018-03-19T09:23:47.483-04:00Prayers that all go well with the cataract surgery...Prayers that all go well with the cataract surgery.

She doesn't like anything near her eyes. It is quite a schedule to do them both before and after the surgery. <br />Gene Blackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15731141629634998152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7481577725397935350.post-84047565195144649762018-03-19T07:56:57.037-04:002018-03-19T07:56:57.037-04:00Hope his surgery goes smoothly!
