2nd. handy update

Hello friends,

 this morning the surgeon was not happy about my hand's recovery. In spite of  the good physiotherapeutical treatments twice a week, I am still suffering nasty squeezy pains in the finger that's still stiff. The tendon problems in the palm are not diminishing either.
He has sent me through to a hand therapist at the UMCG, in Groningen. We hope they can help me forward to (total) cure and suppleness........
 I keep ( some of ) my  fingers crossed; would you  please join me?
 I really do hope so very very much, that I can stitch by hand again, whenever it may be!
And I hope the special hand therapy can start soon; I'll have to wait for
their call.
 Yesterday I tried to stitch some little blocks on the machine, just straight seams, but it was not much of a success :>(
My right hand can not be pressed down flat to lead the fabric properly, so the fabric took the Drunkard's Path Route... and I stopped sewing, putting the machine back to where it came from: behind the curtains :>)
 A couple af new and 2ndhand books I bought were delivered today, so I can go on reading about and planning for the future quilting projects.

This is one of those wonderful Autumn days, calm, fresh, sunny,  and a carpet of magnificent coloured leaves covering the outdoor world.
I love and enjoy it!
Hope you can enjoy this day too.

  Cheers!

In my backyard

Hi friends,
October has arrived smoothly, bringing along September's wonderful weather with the
morning dew and freshness, many hours of golden sunshine, line-dried sheets with that lovely smell...
  

 
 After showing you the little Autumn make-over of my livingroom yesterday, I'd like to share some pictures of what my XXXS backyard looks like, now BBQ and most of the outdoor furniture have been moved to the attic.
   



 Cheers!
