November begins

Since I last posted we have had a death in our family.  My husband's younger brother  (49) Steven who has been in the hospital for 2 1/2 years with a traumatic brain injury contract pneumonia.  His Mom called us and said we should come to Florida as they didn't expect him to make it.  Off we went the next morning and spent the next 5 days at Hospice House by Steven's side.  It was terribly hard on my husband to watch his baby brother dying.  My heart broke for him as I had already been through that 9 years ago when my brother passed away after a long illness.  I knew his pain you see.  My husband tried so very hard to be strong for his mom and sister while there in Florida through it all.  He succeeded in doing so until we were back in NY and he was putzing around his own garage all by himself...then he fell apart and had himself a good cry.  We are very glad to be home.

I have been working on several projects in my quilting room.  I have a bunch to send out to the "quilter".  I really do have to learn to quilt the pieces together after the top is made.
