Some good, some bad....

I couldn't go to the Quilting meeting on wednesday evening because I could only get transport there and had a bad physio session as well, what with the traction and everthing. : ( I'll get to thier exhibtion in a couple of weeks and meet them then. I also had bad news in that a friend of mine has passed away on wednesday morning.

I did a brain storm for my butterfly quilt earlier. These were the words that I came up with:
Beauty, Change, Colour , Creativity, Decoration, Delicate, Dramatic, Dancing, Elegant, Eyes, Femininity, Fragile, Freedom, Female, Faeries, Grace, Gliding, Happiness, Joy, Butterfly Kiss, Luck, Lightheartedness, Lightness, Metamorphosis, Otherworldiness, Painted, Pattern, Potential, Renewal, Rebirth, Sensual, Sunshine, Sight, Sunshine, Symettery, Soul, Spirit, Transformation, Thought.

I want do a good sized quilt, not sure whether to make a rectangluar one, or a square one.
Getting really inspired about this one.

Have started piecing my needlecase and will hopefully finish that by either tonight or tomorrow.

A landmark in my current recovery was achieved today - I managed to get to the shop and to the charity shop a few houses away.I took them some books i'd bought there and read but didn't need anymore and picked up a couple more and some fabric finds. one was a large length of sheer fabric with roses and victorian picture motifs on them. The other was a set of four deep russet red cotton linen weave napkins with chinese characters in the corner. Will photograph them later.
