Remember me?

Hi there my sweet friends
It has been far too long since I posted anything in here. I hope you know that I have not forgotten or given up on the COC's. Even though I may be absent a lot from the forum, I am still plugging away on the COC's.
I recently received a lovely one from Joy and was able to get that one out to a young man who woke up one morning paralyzed, due to a narrowing of the spinal sheath. He needed emergency surgery. He is still in the hospital but should be home this week - actually, he will be staying with his parents for a while and undergo grueling, intensive physical therapy. This young man is only 35 years old and from what I was told, this condition is quite rare and not well understood.
I do work on COC's mostly in the evening when things are quiet around here. The stitching does help keep me focused on others rather than on myself, which is always a good thing. I don't think I will ever get tired of the feel of the quilts on my lap and the needle pulling thread.
Thanks to each of you who have sent me tops, blocks to be finished. I am almost caught up on getting those finished!

Well, good morning, Tadpole! But how come you never tell us what 'supplies' you need most . . . just sayin'.

Have a pile of blocks coming your way. May need to slip in some scraps since you be a scrappy queen! But, do you need backing or batting or thread or needles?????? Come on, don't be shy, fess up.

I have child size one done if you need me to send it anywhere. Please, please, please, let us know what you need to help you along...I am feeling much better, and able to do more...can also send batting, postage, fabric...or whatever. Just please let us know

Thanking you both and when I get to a point where I can actually get to a place where I can sit and take stock. I am at a point where I have a few completed so I feel caught up. Now to continue plugging away. If you could see my sewing room, you would be wondering how I could even find my machine.

Just getting two more COC's in the mail today. The only things I will be needing in the near future is backing and postage. I think I have enough batting to finish up about 6 more COC's.
thanks Ladies!
