So next year when they say "get your flu shot" I will absolutely go the next day and get it. Lesson learned. I not only had the flu early on this season but was lucky/talented enough to get it again...so that is why I have been off the grid for the past couple of weeks...
But I am back! I even started stitching again today. (not too much) I also have long, long list of things to do...
Like getting photos of this Ohio Rose quilt off to a woman who attended one of my programs and now wants to paint this block on her barn! This was my Dad's favorite quilt. It is from the 1930's and is very soft. The quilting is exceptional! The binding is applied with a zigzag machine stitch! After all that wonderful hand work...maybe the maker disliked putting on binding as much as I do?!

Glad you are back up and going again. We do learn the hard way sometimes, don't we?
That is a gorgeous quilt. Could someone other than the original maker have applied the binding?
YIKES! I got my flu shot in November, but had the "talent" to still get it two weeks ago, so who knows whether it's really worth it or not... Glad you're feeling better!
That is a beautiful quilt!
me, too - what Kasey said, except i got mine in October and was talented enough to get the flu three weeks ago ... but i have not been as sick as Auntia, who has been gifted enough to get the flu, a cold, and the flu again all within the past three months ... all i can say is, if this is a "light" case because of the shot, i wouldn't want the heavy duty flu...
I wondered where you were...thought you wanted us to really understand that this is MS Month! So glad you are feeling better. That rose quilt is beautiful!!

Sorry to hear about your 2nd bout with the flu. Glad you are on the mend.
I am so very glad you are back!
Oh no! I wondered why you were so quiet!! Wish I'd asked now! I'm glad you are almost better.
I love taht quilt - so so beautiful!
So sorry you were sick. Glad you are back in quilty mode again.
I am so sorry to hear you got The Flu... and am glad you've mended enough to be back to quilty stuff!
If it helps any, I got the flu shot last fall and still got the flu in February... whomever makes the flu vaccine certainly guessed wrong this year!
Bless your heart---- the flu twice in one year. Ohio Rose would be wonderful on a barn, spoken from this Ohio transplant.
Sorry to read the flu hit you not just once, but twice. That happened in our family too. Each of us passed it to someone else and someone else passed it back I guess! I had a sick December and January because of that. Christmas and the New Year was not fun for me this last season. Hopefully this coming Christmas season will be better.
good to see you post again, i was wondering if you were under the weather...
flu antiques roadshow flu, you are so busy!!
Saw you on the road show ;-)
Loved the game cassarole - very special.
So is this quilt - so fun it will be on a barn.
The quilt is gorgeous! Sorry you're talented in the illness department--not fun. I have gotten a flu shot every year for about five years and have not gotten the flu. Now I want to get the shingles vaccine!!
