Beautiful mail has come to me.
From my dear friend Fiona....A lovely card and gorgeous ornie....so beautifully stitched.
I have been drawing rather than stitching but I have a special project I want done for just after Christmas. A quilt for my dear niece....A girl who has overcome a fair few obstacles to forge on and succeed. She is almost through her nursing degree and she is always supportive and encouraging of my handiwork....She doesn't read my blog so my secret is safe.
So binding is being stitched on under the aircon...
A little sneaky of one of the blocks.....beautifully quilted by FIONA of BUBZRUGZ
My Christmas wish has been granted early.....our Son has another clear scan under his belt and is now finished 2 years of immunotherapy for stage 4 Melanoma which had progressed to his lung....It has been very gruelling for him and for us......It is awful seeing your child go through something like this....We are very proud of his courage....and we feel very blessed that he is fortunate to have had success with this treatment.
One very happy Mama here. So he has his treasured yellow card.....scans every 12 weeks still and we pray for continued good health.
I think that's me all caught up now. It's going to be a very warm day today so after a trip to the trusty hairdresser I think I am going to be relaxing with my binding in the aircon.
Enjoy your day.
What great news for Lucas - a great Christmas present!
ReplyDeletewell there can't be a better pressie than Lucas's yellow card... just so wonderful I can't help being a bit teary! A new tablet is also good news but it's a bit sad you threw the other one on the floor! Happy binding in your flash hair do!

ReplyDeleteI'm so happy for your son's great news. I lost my son last year to colon cancer. I understand the pain you have gone through as his mother. It's something no mother should have to go through. Let's CURE cancer!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Nancy. I am so sorry for your loss....It is a dreadful disease. We definitely must keep on supporting research xxx
DeleteOh that is fabulous news on your son, that would have been my only Christmas wish too. Love all your projects, happy stitching on the binding :) x
ReplyDeleteThat is the best news ever regards your son Michelle. So sorry to read of your broken tablet. Yes new devices always take some getting used to. Lovely decorations received from friends ... I love my handmade decorations so much & think of the folk that gifted them to me. Happy weekend Michelle.
ReplyDeleteOh dear! That is why I still haven't bought a new tablet for myself. They are different now and one needs to relearn everything. Congratulations re your dear son. It must be such a beautiful relief for you as well as he and his family. May the year a head bring all good news. The quilt is looking beautiful from the little peek. Have a lovely Christmas filled with an abundance of all great things. Angel hugs and blessings.
ReplyDeleteFantastic news about Lucas! Hoping the year coming brings nothing but good news for him and his family. Lovely decorations , hope you have the new tablet under control soon.
ReplyDeleteLove hearing your good news. That is far more important than anything else that is going on.
