It's funny how things turn out but Zaki and I were sharing a double bed and I found him at 3AM burning up. Had we been at home, I might not have known he was sick until perhaps the morning. Despite feeling lousy, he was absolutely amazing and a great companion and we were able to do the paperwork on Monday and get a train back to Marrakech...he slept most of the way home (a four hour journey) and we went straight to the doctors. It looks like he picked up a virus. He didn't go to school today but he looks like he is on the mend!
Anyway, there has been a little progress on the orange, aqua and grey hexies. I love working with these 1" hexagons - they baste really easily and all those precise corners satisfy the usually very latent neat geek in me.
...and I am making some progress with my EPP Fireworks ferris wheel.
and here's a sneaky peek of a block in Danny's strip. I'm on the naughty step in this bee. Danny gave us pretty much free reign to make her strip in the Strip Tease bee *edited to add that in fact I'm in a bee called Stitch Tease lol - thanks Di!* and I have been paralysed with such a choice and I'm very late. However, I am going slowly with my old machine (no quarter inch foot, no light but great tension!) and I'm 4 blocks down with 2 to go.
This bee finishes up next spring and I know there are going to be eight very happy chappies as their quilt tops arrive. We really have no idea what our tops will look like...I'm starting to get excited!
