Feeling foolish (and a little bit sore)!!

Yesterday was a beautiful day so went out for a run.  I was nearly home when I stepped off the pavement to go past an elderly gentleman walking his dog.  The road had just been recently resurfaced and there were lots of loose chippings at the side.  I skidded on them like they were marbles (although an awful lot sharper!!) and landed flat on my face - much to the amusement of a group of teenagers on their way to school.  The old gentleman helped me up but I realised that apart from managing to 'pebble dash' my hands and knees, I had hurt more than my pride - I had twisted my ankle badly.  I hobbled home and sat with a bag of frozen peas on it and now it looks like this.... (sorry if I put anyone off their breakfast with this photo!!) 

Sometimes I wonder whether it is worth all the effort trying to ward off 'middle age spread' and just order those elasticated waist trousers now!!!

As I cannot walk on it, I have decided to post some pictures of quilts that I have been working on over the last couple of weeks.  I know I'm not very good and sitting down and posting on my blog so having an enforced 'sit down' had made me do it. Enjoy.

Just scrolling down the photo's I realise there are some great quilters out there and I thank you all for the chance to work on your quilts - I never cease to be inspired.
