corona-cation, episode 16

excitement is building here while watching hospital admits decrease every day....closer to getting back to my fitness regime...no doubt will require a few afternoon naps while i get back up to speed....and since time is of the essence, pulled out another UFO to work on while getting paper foundation triangles printed....it's a traditional and uber scrappy...blue background fabric has been on board for 6-7 years now...last year finally cut all the strips and units for now when the sewing has commenced...

i'll be working on the triangles primarily, but good to see this one started...got to use up lots of small 1.5" strips so far....today mr. mailman brought this package of beauties...half yards of 'nancy's needles' from designer betsy chutchian....every fabric in this collection is gorgeous and it was hard to limit myself to just these--all small prints except two....

and while spring cleaning continues, another fix-it job was tackled...

a tiny book table that sits next to the bed....needed regluing and tightening up and some TLC to cover the well used areas....i think this was hand made by somebody...pretty rudimentary but i like it...and copying mrs. goodneedle, forgot to post my mother's day gift..some ooh-la-la tres chic french hand creams arrived ......

and i, too, garnered some native strawberries at the farmer's market opening today....these are called 'seconds' aka misshapen, but tasty and ripe nonetheless...

saturday and sunday are predicted to be perfect early summer days begging for outside time. mostly, tho, eagerly anticipating some return to usual activities...and as always, hugely thankful for my health, my family's health, our freedom from fear and worry over basic needs and all this enjoyable sewing time!
