Hello all my quilty buddies!!! Just wanted to let you know I'm still alive and kicking, but I must say I have been SICK SICK SICK!!! Yes, I have a nasty virus I just can't seem to shake. I thought I was on my way to shaking it until this last weekend, a slight relapse grabbed me, but it seems more manageable and less severe than it was in the last 3 weeks.
Needless to say, my house is a total wreck, laundry has piled up and Goober is missing his daily walks with his mama. I'm behind with you all and my email, so please forgive me until I feel in the mood to carry on with my daily routine.
I'm trying to look at the silver lining in all this, I've lost 14 lbs......YIPPEE!
So, I'll leave you with a photo of the progress I've made on my "MADE FABRIC" top I have been working on for a while.
It's slowly coming along. I have 16 blocks so far... measuring 8 1/2" each.

Wow! I love the quilt you are making progress on!! Now, get completely better!!
I am glad you are feeling better, and hope the road to full recovery is quick, like now. Your quilt is amazing. How big do you want it to get?
Terrible that you are sick, but if it means losing 14 pounds....then I may need to come over and lick your face! lol
Your made fabric quilt is outstanding! I love it! Makes me want to dig into my scraps and just start sewing! But I think your colors are more fun than mine! :o)
Get well soon!
I'm so sorry you've been so sick! But on the bright side...your "made fabric" blocks look fantastic! :0)
so sorry you have been sick. you don't have that west nile virus? My husband was sick for a couple weeks but not as bad as you and he wonders if he had the virus. I read that you can get a test for it.
Your quilt looks like a piece of art work.
Get well soon.
I love it, beautiful.
Hope you get to feeling better soon. HUGS!
This is a really cool quilt top, but I'm sorry you've been sick - no fun :(
So glad you are feeling better! And what fun quilt blocks.
That explains why things have been quiet in your direction. So sorry that you have been so ill. I'm glad you can find a bright side (weight loss). No trouble finding a bright side to that quilt. Very fun!
Tough way to lose pounds, m'dear! Take care of yourself. love the crumbs ~
:-}pokey
Stay on that road to recovery now, but how great to loose 14 lbs, almost worth being ill! Your quilt is gorgeous - take care and don't overdo it on the ironing and housework, it's not worth it!!
I've missed you! Glad you're on the road to wellness, hope you're feeling back to normal very soon! Losing 14 pounds would be nice, but had rather do it without being sick. Take care of yourself, and I LOVE love love your made fabric blocks. :o)

I gotta say you have me hooked on crumbs just did a huge quilt room clean up I have 3 huge gargage bins of crumbs, I sorted in light medium and dark. I want to make a (many) crumbs into fabric.
Now for that ugly virus I will let you know it will go away, but you need to rest with lots of hot fluids. Have had it, does take its time going away but then when it does you will be in a flurry to make fabric.
Get better soon.
Wishing you are 100% recovered soon! This is looking fabulous!
I love the quilt you are making! I love the variety!
sorry that you were ill, but woohoo for feeling better and making fabric!
Bleh, sick for weeks and weeks? Sounds like no fun at all. Glad you are finally on the mend. The blocks sure are bright and cheerful!
Hope you continue to improve! You have GOT to get back to making that quilt. It is just so lively and appealing! Just fun.
Oh oh, the time I think nothing is wrong....something is wrong. Glad your better and able to blog about it. That is wild fabric you made. It reminds me of the most colorful blandex.
Oh you poor thing. Hope you feel better soon. xx

Awww I'm so sorry you've been sick.
Your made fabric is wonderful - how clever of you.
Take it easy until you feel better.
That is a totally cool quilt!!
I am so sorry that you haven't been well. I hope your health is improving and getting your strength back. Do take care! Your quilt blocks are beautiful! Great idea to use our ever growing scraps!
Oh, I'm sorry to hear that you've been sick. That's not any fun! OK, losing some weight helps make it a little bit better, but not much. I hope you're taking it easy and not trying to catch up on housework etc. all at one time. I hate that part when I've been sick.
LOVE love love your made fabric!! So bright and cheery! It makes me want to go play in my scraps, but mine aren't that cheery. How big of a quilt are you aiming for?
Awesome! I need to make some fabric, too! Hope you are over the worst of it and are completely well soon.
fabulous made fabric..glad you are back on the mend! keeping taking good care of yourself..
OMG! This quilt is stunning! Anyone who makes a quilt like this is my kind of quilter! I love improv quilting!
