Sister's Choice Quilts

My interests are quilting, reading, cooking, family, decorating, and matters of style. I post regular quilting tutorials and book reviews of current fiction.

Making Lemonade

Well, due to my injury, typing is a bit of a struggle, still.  Thank you for your expressions of sympathy, I appreciate it so much.  Because of my bum finger I haven't been able to respond to each comment–it takes forever!  It is such an ordeal to type.

My husband took pity on me and took me away to Lake Tahoe for the weekend, which was a lovely as I have ever seen it.  We had a relaxing weekend, with me either reading, or staring at my finger, willing it to heal.

I have tried to sew a bit with my Quick Curve Ruler project, Metro Hoops, and am still sweating it a bit.  I guess it is going better.  Maybe I am over thinking things too much.  Hopefully, I can show some pictures tomorrow. 

Happy Monday!  Happy 4th of July week!

  1. What a lovely way and place to spend some of your recuperation time when doing things with a bandaged finger isn’t easy! Cheers for your thoughtful hubby!!
    Were you told when you could remove the bulky bandage? A smaller bandage might make using your finger easier, but I imagine putting pressure on your deep puncture will hurt for some time to come. Your finger will tell you what to stop doing!
    Big hugs!

  13. That’s kind of a good news/bad news thing, isn’t it!?!? Glad you were able to get away for a nice week-end trip! Please don’t try to respond to comments–you need to give that poor finger time to heal!

  19. I love Lake Tahoe! Enjoy! So sorry about your finer… it’s my worst fear with the sewing machine. Now, the rotary cutter… that’s another fear lurking!

  22. who knew quilting was so hazardous to ones health! Hope the finger heals soon – I have this mental picture of you in that beautiful setting – sitting, staring forlornly at your finger. Great to get away for the weekend though – happy 4th!

  28. This is why I need a husband. LOL
    Less than three weeks before Quilt Market, I sliced off the tip of my index finger with a rotary cutter. A getaway to Lake Tahoe would have been lovely… I’m glad you were able to get away for a nice relaxing weekend.
    Heal soon!
