At least she is feeling a little better now and the dog didn't have to wear a face mask.<br />The chapel is lovely, I remember you blogging about it before.<br />Could you cut round the outline and sew it to some blue felt?

Such a scary thing. But in rehab she will get a lot of special care. Just as from the side of the family :)))<br />That's a very specialist you are stitching for her. I could imagine that once you have added the white clouds and the snowflakes you will like it better. And if not, why not add another background colour.Brigittehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03922122091202289138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1297707426849940037.post-67363388339065356762018-01-21T12:14:53.673-05:002018-01-21T12:14:53.673-05:00Oh my goodness!!

I hope she bounces back quickly. I love the chapel. I agree with you but I don't know how to help. You could cut it out and mount it to something interesting. Like I've seen some people mounting their finishes to wooden things they get.

Glad to hear your mom's on the mend!<br /><br />Would tent stitches in the dark blue work with the piece? It might be the "border" that bothers me; I'd fill in all the blank spots around the piece with bead snowflakes! Could you maybe add a moon?rosey175https://www.blogger.com/profile/00418995945160843165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1297707426849940037.post-49259648039754846902018-01-19T21:41:08.594-05:002018-01-19T21:41:08.594-05:00Happy to hear your mom is in rehab and on the mend...Happy to hear your mom is in rehab and on the mend!

Tell your mom to get lots of fluids. I had pneumonia many years ago and when I asked the nurse how to keep it from coming back, she said drink , drink, drink! Unfortunately she did not mean a good micro-beer!
