Oh, no! That's not Good!

I bought a quilt pattern a year ago from A Red Boot Quilt Co.  It is called "The Rabbits at Hyde Park".  I didn't have time to finish it last year.  So, when I found it in a box at the bottom of my closet, I decided to get 'er done for this Easter.  I thought it wouldn't take me long, since I had a good start on it.  But as I was rolling around in my wheelchair (I still use one in my sewing room because it is too small to have two chairs and I can't get around very well.  I usually just roll from the sewing machine to my cutting table.) I got tangled up in the cord that controls the foot pedal.  The cord pulled out of the plug.  Not good!  I wonder how long it will take to fix it.


I still have some handwork to do on the Rabbit quilt, so I will continue on with that.  The machine applique will just have to wait.  And, as if that wasn't bad enough,  I woke up with a sore throat and a stuffy nose this morning and then to make matters even worse, I burned the stew I was cooking.  It's true!  I can only do one thing at a time and this morning I was trying to do too much.

But since I am an optimist (sort of) I will show you the Rabbit quilt.  I think it will be cute.  This is only part of it.  I still have more on my cutting table.


And last, but not least, a Hibiscus flower.  My plant is starting to bloom!  Spring must be on its way.


Can I get any more positive than that?

I have days like that! Fortunately not often. The rabbits are adorable. I used to have a hibiscus and would delight each day in the new blossoms. I used to go to work and announce, "It's a two blossom day!", or three or four.....

The yellow is so nice a bright. I love the rabbit quilt - I have the sheep. Hopefully you won't be without your machine for long.

Ugh! Hope they can fix it fast for you! Maybe they have a spare one?
Cute little rabbits! Glad you can work on that one!
