  Really great pictures of how to paper piece for those who need a few hints.
The day began with the visit to the clinic as usual. It took a bit longer as the tubing had to be changed. But after we went for a coffee , no walking today as my hip was bad. Hopefully it will get better tomorrow.
Marg came over this afternoon with a new Nora Roberts book, her latest entitled Chasing Fire.
The book I am reading now is Stolen ,author Susan Lewis. It is a very interesting mystery about a stolen child. That is implied in the beginning of the book and  then is hinted at throughout the book. It is about two families who are involved with this child, now an adult. The mystery is well done as you are kept guessing as to whom the abducted child is , who are the abductors, and who are the parents that suffered such a huge loss. It is one of those books that keep you reading into the night.  It is a mystery without blood and gore , just a puzzle to solve. It's a very nice read that keeps your brain jumping back and forth trying to figure it out. Also it gives insights into the business of  antiques and auctions of the same.
The nurse dropped in again this afternoon to show us what to do if the pump starts beeping in the middle of the night.
Some more pictures from last night .

A beautiful quilt by a wonderful quilter. She bought a sack of batik scraps and cut them into strips which she then sewed together , I think there were 6 strips in each block, then she set them in this pleasing arrangement ,added the thin strip and a border of piano keybord strips.

  Beautiful Japanese Irises. And they survive the winters and bloom again for many years.

Poppies all over town brightening up the landscape , filling the eye with colour.

The end LOL!!!!

Have a great evening....

Bon nuit.
