Prayers, please
Well, today was a day of no sewing. I was hurting from pulling my back on Monday and went back to bed for half the day. I felt great when I got up! Yea!!
Off to horseback riding tonight. I even got talked into riding. I don't think I've been on a horse for 40 years. LOL But, it was going great, and then the instructor's horse got out of control and she was thrown. She hit her head and was bleeding. Thank God I was in the arena and could get down from my horse quickly. I got to her and she was convulsing a little. Told DH to call 911. The problem, we didn't have the address and we are out in the country. DH found a magazine and got the paramedics on their way. Once the convulsing stopped and we noticed the blood from the back of her head. DH was there and gave me his shirt. Put it and pressure on the back of the head. She was coherent, but had trouble with certain questions. She kept trying to get up, but I finally got her to stay still and let me put pressure on her head. Nothing else was readily showing damage. The paramedics were there in about 5 minutes. I kept her talking. She was having trouble remembering what happened and kept trying to remember. DD was having a hard time seeing someone she cares about hurt and on the ground. I couldn't comfort her, except for words because I was applying pressure. We finally got her in medical care and all the questions we could answer given the the medics. She is currently at the hospital in a great deal of pain. We don't know the results of any of the tests yet, so please say prayers for Judy and her family and mine.
I'm great in a crisis, but now I'm having trouble sleeping. I don't do blood well at all. I'm surprised I made it through all of that. DD is finally sleeping, and I hope can get a good rest tonight.
Thanks for the prayers.

Another pillow done
Well, the 2 gifts I HAD to have done this week are done. Woo Hoo. I like the little pillows. I wonder if I should make covers for my pillows on my couch and do that instead of using the blocks for a wall hanging? I really love my red wall hanging I got for Christmas from Kim, so I don't need one for my kitchen anymore.Decisions, decisions.
I could use to get some actual quilting done soon. Hoping it is tomorrow. Won't count for fabric usage, but it will count to get it done and out of my house. LOL
One Valentine pillow done
Well, I decided I didn't have the umph to make 2 wall hangings -- actually 3. So, I am making 2 pillows for DD's teachers. This is the first one finished. I could have had the other one done if I had measured the block correctly. So, now I know and I can get the other one done.
Love block made
I have a couple of brown and brown & red blocks to make for love quilts. This is a block I made for a BOM I did on a yahoo group a few years ago. So, I decided to try this one for a man's love quilt. One more thing off my list.
