After posting yesterday and not being sure how big I wanted to make the red/coral/yellow quilt I decided to work on a store sample for a class that I am offering. The local quilt shop showed me a bunch of new patterns and wondered if I would teach one/some of them. I chose this one called "Sankaku" by Tracey Brookshier. I was fascinated with the way the 3 different size triangles worked together in the borders around the central block. A little over half of the fabrics are current finds at the store and the rest are out of my stash.
I think this would be a good one to do a machine embroidery in the center square and maybe some smaller related embroideries in some of the triangles.
My mother (89) has another problem now, ongoing since last May, with her legs "weeping" and they are watching it very closely to be sure it doesn't turn into an infection or any other worse condition. She has never had diabetes or cancer, has a strong heart and has a sister 8 years older than her still living. We started the ball rolling on a visiting nurse every day through a health care agency. I am everything else for my parents, but I'm not a nurse. I almost got sick looking at her legs yesterday at the dr.'s office. I could say that makes me a weak person, but I really know that God gave me other talents for caring for my parents and that I have to let some of it go to more qualified persons.
