I haven't done much in the past few days, not feeling terribly well.
But yesterday morning DH fixed breakfast for us both and then said
"Let's go to Ephrata this morning." My early morning brain couldn't
unwind why he would want to go to this little town about 45 mins. away
and asked only to hear my darling dear sweet husband say "I heard
there's a great quilt shop there."
Wow. What a quilt shop it is. Great fabric, great prices, and best of
all incredible people. They chatted, visited, compared, looked up books
I had no intention of buying, showed my husband the Gamill, showed me
the too-cute clogs two of them were wearing. I ended up buying less
than I wanted to, but more than I intended.
We brought home our purchases (yes, our) and today we recovered the
living room lampshades. Pretty, pretty, pretty. I'm really excited
about it. It makes our living room look like a different place. DH is
thrilled and very impressed that I knew how to do it without getting
books or such. I posted pics.

I probably won't be on much for the next few days. I'm having a bit of
a flare-up of my physical problems and am in a good bit of discomfort.
But I did want to show you that even when I'm not up to quilting,
sometimes I manage to do something that deserves a tiny little happy
dance. :)
Peace and much good work,
Sunny

WOOO HOO what a great DH! and the lamps are lovely :-)
get the rest you need to cope with your flare up - a lot of us have
flare-ups of one kind or another so we know your discomfort (((sunny)))

Love the lampshades! When you're feeling better, would you post your method
of re-covering them? Thanks. Take care.
