In the Pink: A Flimsy
The quilt for the ballet school's breast cancer fundraiser is moving right along. The leg pain won't let me sit for long periods of time, so sewing a quilt top is a perfect activity for me: Stitch a little, press a little, stitch a little, press a little, stitch stitch stitch press a lot stitch a little more . . . .
I'm liking this a lot.
You may be thinking it wants a border. I concur. Border fabric has been ordered from Glorious Color and their service is so speedy, I'm likely to be posting a finished top by Tuesday.
Thanks to those who asked/commiserated about the leg. I started physical therapy today and will be going twice each week until further notice. I like the guy and I felt some improvement even with just one visit. Next week I believe he'll give me exercises to do at home. And he's cleared me to walk some, just on level surfaces.
What surprise me is how tiring having this kind of an injury is. I came home from PT and took a full hour's nap. This after sleeping 8 hours last night. And I know tonight won't be a late one, either.

Hope there's some other project that will keep you in that helpful rhythm of sew, sew, press, press, stitch a little more, press, etc. as you wait for the new fabric to arrive.
Cheers that the PT is already helping your poor knee. I'm not surprised you're feeling extra tired as pain is tiring and having to pay attention to how and where you walk is also tiring. Enjoy those naps!
Wishing you well.
Hugs!
Very pretty quilt coming together here, Nancy.
Like the quilt-in-the-making!
