The last six weeks have been extremely difficult as I really struggled to get out of the hole this year. People who haven't lost a child tend to tell you it will get better with time... Well, it does not.

I have several projects going at the moment, but unfortunately my Innovis 4000 broke down and is waiting for a new part. So, I am rather stuck. That however, gave me time to go fabric shopping for next years project which seems to be the remedy I needed as the dark cloud is lifting at last.

We decided to stitch Shadow Trapunto Quilts. My daughter bouht me Geta Grama's book a few years back as a birthday present, so it is about time it is put to good use.
Unbelievable as it my sounds, we are already planning projects for 2019 which is a mere 12 weeks away...
