It's that time of year, coughing, headaches etc etc. So boring, but with 39 degrees it's not an option but to stay in bed and that's what I have been up too. Today I feel on top of the world, well nearly:) More next time in the stitching department, it's a promise;)
Firstly I like to show you what my friend
Carol made for me, a companion to my already gorgeous pincushion. I do get the nicest presents;)
I have managed to stitch a bit yesterday on General Wives, block III, it was quite
complicated and the instructions said "You can Do It", so I did, what else could I do???. GW Block IV looks a bit easier, thank you who designed it:)
These hearts were made by Nancy from Moon Pie Primitives and I could not resist them and the Patchwork bag! :)
Wishing you a Very Happy Valentine's Day and may you be wooed, wined and dined by your loved one's! and be given lots of Love & Chocolates!!
Snow Time at home, ROLL ON SPRING!!
Thank you so much for your lovely comments on my last post, you are the best, a happy dance again !!!

What lovely gifts from Carol! The patchwork hearts and quilt blocks are divine! Not so much the snow though.
Beautiful pin cushions!! Sorry to hear you are not feeling well :( Take care of yourself
Such beautiful things! Love all your gifts from Carol and the hearts and bag from Moon Pie Prims are darling - awesome colors!
Good job on the quilt block, too. Looks far too complicated for me!
Happy Valentine's Day to you.
I hope you're feeling better soon. I hate being sick. Love the preseents. Your General's Wives look great! Don't blame you for not being able to resist the heart and patchwork bag either!
I hope you're feeling better soon! We have a head cold here that we're passing around. I need to take some knock-out sleeping pills in the hopes of getting some shut eye tonight! :P
I can't get over the difference in the weather between here and there! I put away my winter coat for now and the heat hasn't kicked on yet today, either.
LOVELY presents! Great job on the General's Wives block--so pretty! I love the books that you got as well, and, of course, the BBD fabric--swoon! I am finally back to working on my hexagons and am teaching my daughter to quilt, so having fun with all that.
xo Get better soon!
Being sick is the pits...hope you're fully recovered soon. You've gotten lovely presents and your GW blocks look great.
je hebt leuke cadeautjes gekregen!..
veel knutselplezier,
van harte beterschap en 'n fijne valentijnsdag gewenst..
groetjes, Petra
Wat een mooi speldenkussen, die andere trouwens ook. De General Wife's Quilt ken ik niet, maar het ziet er erg mooi uit. En diat patchworkzakje/tasje, wat een schatje!!!
Beterschap, hoor!
Groetjes, Cisca

Allereerst van harte beterschap.

I hope that you're feeling better soon! I think I'm in about the same place that you are - staying in bed is so nice!!
Such a beautiful girl from Carol and I love your quilt blocks. I like how they tell you that "You Can Do It?" and you did!! They look great.
Happy Valentines
(Your gifts are lovely ;)
Wishing you a prompt recovery. Here in the south of France we are also buried under lots of snow and it keeps falling... beautiful when you don't have to drive and go out!!!
Love GW, the pincushion and the hearts.
Que de merveilles !

That is a gorgeous gift from Carol - lucky you! I like your quilt blocks too - always hard for me to choose between quilting and stitching!
Hi Bertie, I hardly hope you feel better now:-)please, let me know how are you.
I Love all your gifts from Carol : they are awesome. Your quilt also looks great .
Bertie, I don't have your e-mail:I have had lately problems with my yahoo box and I lost many e-mails: so sorry ! I don't know how to send you my design.
My own e-mail is isadrena@yahoo.fr.
I wish you a nice health and a great week-end to spend a lovely time.
Bisous d' Isa

Just happened upon your lovely blog and was so happy to see you have three of the quilt books I edited—Stitches from the Schoolhouse, History Repeated, and A Bird in Hand. Thank you so much for supporting our books!
