well, I have been battling with a horrible chest cold (doctor called it bronchitis, but I have a feeling it's type A flu) for 2 weeks now. Horrible cough, just awful. Since I have high blood pressure, there are a lot of meds I cannot take. The doctor gave me a prescription for 'tessalon perles' which helped a couple times, but for the most part didn't help as much as I hoped. I have literally gone through 5 bags of cough drops (they help the most). I have been using the sugar-free and surprisingly they are just as effective and don't taste any worse than the loaded with sugar kind.
Anyhow, I am starting to feel a LITTLE better, so I wanted to do a little sewing. I pulled out 6 of my strips I cut previously for the #scrappytripalong and sewed - these go so fast and you have a block in no time!
I am holding off making anymore for now until I get a couple more WIP's done. I have the quilt I'm working on for the Bake Shop which is getting close to being a finished top! But, I also have the curved 9-patch quilt I MUST work on after that....... *then* maybe I'll work on some more #scrappytripalong blocks :)
Sorry to hear that you are ill, but happy to know that you are on the mend and feeling like sewing a bit. You're probably sick of resting, but don't overdo it!
ReplyDeleteLove it! I am resisting doing that quilt. I've got too many other projects but I love that design!
ReplyDeleteSorry you are still feeling crummy. This stuff just hangs on forever! BeGoneDarnCold!
So sorry you are sick! I know it's awful - so many people around here have some form or other of it. So far, I've been able to stay away, but who knows! Love your scrappy trip along so far! i don't know when I'll be getting to mine, but I'm gonna do it! o:)
