Wow, summer is almost over and school is beginning again! Where does the time go? Pretty soon this wonderful block of the month that Anne has given us will be over. Seems like it just started, doesn’t it? The weather is starting to cool off, so it’s a perfect time to work with wool. (although you all know how much I like working with wool when it’s triple digits, LOL). Okay, get busy now!
I wanted to thank all of you who have emailed me or my friends wondering where I’ve been. Well, my Mom has been seriously ill for the past 3 weeks and I had to go to California. She’s still not out of the woods, but hopefully she’ll be fine and back to her normal vibrant self soon.
I’ll probably be going back down there next week if she’s released from the hospital as expected, so don’t worry about me if my blog seems “silent”. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you caring about me. You’re all the best!
I took my little netbook with me, but wasn’t able to get any wireless reception in her neighborhood or the hospital (believe it or not!). She has dial-up and I didn’t feel like I could tie up the phone line using her computer. And, I never had time to go sit at a Starbucks. So, the internet and bloggy world weren’t available to me. I actually came home to 535 emails. Yikes, how will I ever get thru them all. Oh my! Anyway, if you emailed me or commented on my blog, please forgive me if you didn’t get an answer. I’m sure you understand.
Hugs, Anne

I do hope your Mum makes a full recovery.....and remember to look after yourself as well! Your blocks are looking fab!
Hope your Mom gets better real soon, Anne.
Another gorgeous WOOL block. Now I have a big dilema. How am I going to make my block with a Scottie (black) when I have a Westie (white). He'll never forgive me!
I am glad to hear that your mother is doing better and I do hope she gets home soon.
Your blocks look so good altogether. I am going to go check my wools and see if I have what it takes to do the blocks. Love the new block.
Your blocks are soooo wonderful!! I'm sending positive energy towards California and I know that all the good vibes from Blogland will help speed her recovery.
Shoot don't worry about catching up with all those e-mails. Just start fresh...everyone will understand :0)

Best wishes for your mom's full recovery. A stressful time for you I'm sure. I'll just bet you had lots of handwork to keep your mind occupied. Loving your new wool block. As for the 535 e-mails...I say dump them and start fresh.
Good to have you back and all the best for your Mum. Don't worry about replying, you need sewing time! The blocks are great all together.
My prayers and thoughts are with you and yours....we wait as you take care of your mom.
:-) liking the block and to see them all set together is wonderful. I do hope you get a chance to check the last few post on my blog. BTW...Starbucks charges for WIFI don't they?

So nice to see you posting again on your blog..It was far more important for you to be with your Mom ..so glad to hear she is doing better..travel safe going back down. Your wool blocks are wonderful. Louise
So glad you're back Anne....thinking of you and your mom! Love the new block!!
I absolutely love the combination of cotton and wool. You're doing a great job with Anne's BOM!
I came to your blog via Ann's and she is right - your wool version of her squares is just wonderful! Fabulous job!
I will send a prayer up for your mother.
hugs,
becky
Anne, I surely understand as not quite two years ago my mother became suddenly ill and I went home to Iowa for almost a month to be with her. Everything else "goes on the back burner" when these things happen. My mother recovered but it took her a year to really get her health back. I'll be thinking of you and your mom and hope that all goes well. I do love your wool blocks and think this Scottie one will be so fun to do!
You know I love your new block. So cute. So sorry to hear about your mom. Hope she gets well real soon. Take care of yourself too.
I hope your mom continues to get better... although an excuse for a visit is probably not a bad thing!
Your blocks are so beautiful! I love them all!
Take care, Kimberly
Thoughts and prayers headed your way for your dear mother. I sure hope she feels better soon. Your scotty block is as adorable as the rest. I look forward to seeing your wool blocks every month. :)
Ok, I officially love these blocks! I have very little wool, but boy I would love to do this project in wool as you have!
this is my favorite block oh how cute that doggie is:)
so sorry to hear about your Mom, sure hope she up and about real soon
take care of yourself and don't worry about answering emails,
thinking about you

Sorry to hear about your Mom Anne -- hope she's all better soon. Your little version of Anne's block is adorable!
Wonderful wool blocks-I am also doing this BOM in embroidery. Is the background of your blocks also wool or only the applique? Thanks
Wishing your Mom a full recovery. Take care of yourself too.
I'm answering, but have NO idea who Kaaren is, below, regarding your Mom. It's NOT me, Kaaren in Arnold. Oh well, here' I thought I was unique, and lo and behold, I a one of the masses!
Hope you and our mom are doing okay. You have been missed, just wanted to let you know that. Take care
It's been far too long since I've visited. Oh my, you have been busy. I do hope your Mom is on the road to recovery.
I will be back to being a "regular" again.
Sewing hugs and blessings to you and your Mom.
been thinking about you
hope all is well....
Kathie
