EMERGING, et al

 

LOOK AT THIS!!!!
Our first little tomatoes are emerging....
I am finding this SO exciting!!:)))

It has been years since I've grown
any vegetables and I still feel a 
big sense of accomplishment
when plants produce...😂

and...I feel that

I am finally beginning to turn the corner
with these left over symptoms 
from both the Lyme disease
and Anaplasma from my tick bites...
I still have relapses, but fewer
and fewer....

I am less nauseous and am
having fewer headaches
with mainly that "brain fog"
hanging on the longest...

But...👌
I was able to sew a few pink strips
from my pink strip leftovers box
into a 6.5" block
....as a beginning....
A new emerging project

For my making of
a pink/peach version 
of the "Blues in the Night" blocks
as I did really enjoy making these...

Here is a picture of the Blues in the Night
if you recall it...???



I had placed the central 6.5" block horizontally
in this blue version, 
But I will place it 
vertically in my latest 
version:
All the fabrics, both in strips and
chunks for the 1/2 square triangles,
are from stash leftovers...

My pinks are limited so I've also added
some peachy ones and some that are 
a bit off the pink spectrum...
this one will be 
a really scrappy version...
😊

I plan to take the making of these
slowly, step by step, each
day that I feel well enough
and am trying not overdo--
so far
I've sat maybe 10 minutes +/-
at a time to sew....

My concentration is still pretty
shakey....and I do take frequent naps
which seem to help a lot...


Thank you to all who sent me 
such encouraging messages...
💓💙💚💛💜💓
