Pajama day.

A busy week, with unexpected news. In the summer, early fall both quilts for my two sisters started. Tahoe has half the diamond sets pieced. Lightning strikes have all the strip sets sewn, the cross cutting started. I was going to work on these two quilts for the next couple of months, when a phone call changed all of that. This bargello needs to be sewn at lightning speed as my sister is not well, battling a disease yet again that shall not be named. It is way past the time to find the cure for it!

The colours was chosen by her and I want her to be able to wrap herself in this quilt to hug her with love and warmth, she lives back home and somehow it will get to her. The last time we saw her was in March 2020, just the thought of not seeing her again is just too much.

So while the snowflakes fly outside, I will be standing on my kitchen mat in my pj's sending her healing love and hugs while I work on her quilt.

Jeopardy quilting for this week helped to keep my hands busy and helped with calming effect of thoughts racing through the mind. We said goodbye to both our parents and we are not ready to say goodbye to a sister or a brother yet. We know we will have to deal with it, with seven of us we may never be ready to do so.
