After falling by the wayside last time I joined, my Dr has referred me back. Given my Medical history its hard for me to see the benefits of dieting. BUT..my mobility is so badly affected now, I figure it will be for my own benefit to lose weight. So here I am with lots of positive thoughts and determination. Wish me well. I have taken a before pic, but until you can see the difference I am keeping it under wraps! lol
Look what I received in the mail today. A beautiful Friendship Quilt stitched by the Ladies at 123. I am overwelmed that so many stitcher's have me in their thoughts and prayers. The cards and beautiful words written inside brought tears to my eyes. It will help me keep positive in the coming months.

My life went to He** in a hand basket in Febuary. I have now dusted myself off & trying hard to get back to some sort of normal living. My last CT scan showed that my Lung Cancer was back.. 3 years post op.. Nothing more to be done, so I am just getting on with things. The one good thing is, its a slow growing type, so my Oncologist "Thinks" I should be reasonably well till the end of the year. Plenty more Stitching time to be had then eh!
I have been keeping up with my projects, still stitching The Four Seasons Marolein Bastin & Cirque des Cercles with Wildflowers thread. I will take some pics soon & show my progress.
1. Stitch at least a week on MB Good Neighbours 2. Make good progress on Four Seasons 3. Finish Diva's smalls piece4 4. Stitch Scissor Fob 5. Get some hrs in on my Hardhanger piece.
