Some better news

Thank you to everyone for your kind wishes and for putting up with me too lol.   I am very pleased to say Lance is doing much better this afternoon.  It seems the procedure to fill the aneurysm has worked after all and fingers crossed he will be taken by taxi to a train tomorrow and safely put on it to come home as far as Bendigo where I can pick him up.     The site will be checked tomorrow morning and if all is well I will have him home by tea time.  It will be such a relief to have him home where I can keep an eye on him lol and it will take some time to heal as he has a huge haematoma there as well because of all the bleeding.  One very sore leg and a set of sore kidneys too will need lots of TLC.

Now didn't get too much done yesterday but look what I have completed today lol.  Nearly all those wonky little squares have been used up and I have enough left for a folder cover and a basic bag just to keep projects organised.  I have used up heaps of wadding scraps and calico and actually done something useful with it all.

Chair cushion

Random block made up into a fabric ATC

New pin cushion


Thread catcher

Now off to answer some emails and I might just get the folder and bag organised tonight and finish it off in the morning.  Hopefully next time you hear from me I will have Lance home.
