      I agree with Lotti...make a row that is enjoyable to do...reflecting the requests if there are any . I my case...horizontal rows 6 1/2 by 36 1/2
      of any color and method works...I love all the crayons in the box !!
      Now show and tell ! A row came last week and one this week !!
      First from Jen.....A Rainbow row ! Then from Wendy, beautiful batiks in cool colors ! And a bonus...watercolor !
      Hummmm???wonder if I can work that bird-y in somehow?? Thanks so much ladies !!

        I agree with Lotti too. Just do whatever you like for my rows. Lotti, the bear looks like he is keeping cool. A good idea with our temps. Upper 90s with heat index of 110. I am really looking forward to my vacation next week.
        Of course I won't be able to do much. I am having MRI of both shoulders this morning and see the ortho doctor again on Wed. He knows I had the dislocated right shoulder and suspects I have a torn rotator cuff on the left. I am in a sling on both arms. Luckily my hands still work, so I just pull the keyboard up real close and I can still type. The MRI is to check soft tissue damage. I told the doctor I wasn't having any surgery until after vacation. He didn't argue with me yet. Xrays showed a lot of arthritis in both shoulders. That I knew about for several years. Swimming helps keep them working. I am not allowed to do stairs alone, so I can't get to any sewing projects, even hand work is downstairs. I am glad I downloaded some more books on my tablet. Keeps me from going crazy! Stay cool everyone!

          Dawn - I'm so happy you liked your row. As soon as I think of winter cardinals and pine trees pop into my head. I'm from Illinois and where I grew up we had a big pine tree wind break out in the middle of the country. Every winter we would have at least 1 pair of cardinals winter with us and eat out of the old feeder.

          Marilyn - you asked for bright and scrappy! :-)

          Cathy - I'm so sorry to hear about your fall. Rest and let yourself heal. Shoulders are tricky. If you push too hard you loose mobility in the long run....but if you don't use it at all the same thing will happen! Listen to your doctor and ask for physical therapy when he/she thinks you're ready

          Geneva thanks for the beautiful row!




          I've made some progress on my sewing room transition...big stuff has been moved, but I need to get another shelf to put in the closet and move the rest of my goodies/batting/ kits/etc down. Then just putting up the personal touches. I'll post images in the retreat forum for those that want to take a peek! For those involved in the same heat wave as us stay cool! Heat index of 110 here tomorrow :S this very Preggo momma isn't leaving the house this weekend unless it spontaneously combusts - and with this heat it just might!

            Cathy I'm sorry you're going through so much, thank goodness you have fabric to stroke. I'm sure you can include it in your physio somehow. Good luck weds I hope the news is good.

              Officially due in 4 weeks, but my first 2 were both early so we're actually expecting to see her in about 2-3 weeks. Well see what happens!

                      Marilyn - Wow love your rows from Jen and Wendy! (Both are fabulous).
                      Jen - Wonderful row from Geneva!
                      Lotti - Your row is done - I'll send Monday morning. I suspect you'll receive in 5-10 days.

                        I have not been very active on the forum this summer, I have a lot to catch up!

                        For now, I will say this: Barb, Kathy and Geneva: your rows just left the house, to the post office.
                        Brenda: I did not read that you receive my row? I read you were going thru a lot, praying for you and your family.
                        Very lovely rows everyone!

                        Marilyn and Dawn, you are next on my list. Will work on your rows until next week-end.

                        The summer here in Laval (Montréal) is fabulous. Very hot and humid, but sunny. Can't complain.

                          Hi Andree -
                          Thanks for the heads up I'll be on the lookout!

                          Its been a busy fun summer here too and humid just like you.

                            Hey Barb, look what the mailman just delivered...



                            Yes, I agree, sending it from Iceland would have been fun, but - and it's a huge but - having had to mail stuff from foreig places I know just what a pain it can be - finding post office when it's actually open - figuring out regulations & declaration requirements for customs - postage. Generally involves much much more time than doing at home!

                            Love the row - it's fabulous - and of course you know that I'm totally addicted to batiks and strong bright colors...

                            THANK YOU!!!

                              Certainly colourful, well done Barb.

                              Any twinges yet Jen?

                                Lotti -
                                Awesome glad to hear the row arrived and that you like it! (I like it too). I've made practice a block each time I make a row thinking about adding them to the finished piece.
                                Your right it would have been tough to mail the row from Iceland!
