Fussy Cutting

I had scanned and printed these leaves last year, and then last week finally put the fusible on the back of them, and now started cutting them out. I haven't designed the quilt yet though. We really had fun yesterday with the art quilters' group. Since we hadn't seen each other for 7 weeks there was a lot of show and tell, and a former member who moved away was visiting. There is always a lot of inspiration with all of the styles of quilting we do.



After they left I had to take my mother for a blood test for one of her medications, and then the Dr. for her legs. The legs aren't healing so now we will be going to the hospital 2-3 times a week for some kind of a bath and ointment to try to heal them. He said he can't give her the boot that pumps the fluid out of her legs now because the skin is not healing. He said if they can't get the fluid out of her legs it will start travelling up her body and cause pneumonia and eventually heart failure. I am optimistic that they will be able to heal her legs. She is upbeat about it too.
