rainy day blues

It's drizzling here today
Iam a little down! Number one daughter has gone to Peter Mac. today to get results from the scan she had last week to see if the chemo has done it's job
The first lot of chemo they tried didn't work so they changed it.
They are then suggesting she go back on the hormone drugs she was taking before but the side effects were terrible, so she doesn't want to start back on them
I think I'll go for a walk now, rain or no rain, then I hopefully will do some sewing this afternoon

  3. Hello Illene, I too hope all goes well with your daugher...not an easy time for all and I will have you in my thoughts......Illene do you have an email address???? Now with the stretching of borders....it can relate to the weave of the fabric...last year I made a Japanese Quilt for a 21st birthday.....and I used two different weights of fabric....to avoid the stretching I had to unpick all the borders and iron on vilene to prevent puckering...On Sunday with the Nine Patch....I was out an inch so I had stretched the bias.....so I sewed a seam the length of the borders one eighth of inch in and that gathered up the slack...I hope this makes sense to y ou.....I was not a happy camper with the quilt......Take Care Warm Regards Lyn
