But, but, but, I got the flu shot! (A slight delay in the fabric giveaway)

I've been out of commission for the last almost two weeks with a bad case of the flu, which turned into bronchitis.  Oh joy.  I ended up going to stay with my Mom for some TLC, but I forgot my iPhone charger and she doesn't have a computer.  I've been cut off from Facebook, your blogs and my friends for a week and a half.  I also haven't been able to shop for new stash.  Gasp!  For a while there, I wasn't sure whether that was worse than the flu.  (Ok, no, the flu was worse, but by just a hair.)

But now I'm home, feeling a bit better, my iPhone is charging and here I am with my laptop.  There was also some lovely new stash waiting for me in my mailbox, including a piece of fabric I can't stop staring at.  What?  I'm giving away three pieces, so, it's only logical that I'd replace them with pieces I like, no?  As Susan pointed out in her comment on my last post, it's only logical given the price of fabric is going up.  I like Susan :)

Anyways!  I'm just checking in to say hi (so, hi!) and to let you know that I'll do the draw for the fabric giveaway on Saturday instead.  I'm already late, so why not?  And I'm just still really tired.  The thought of figuring out who wants which fabric, cutting up little pieces with everyone's names and then spending half an hour trying to make Bart pick one out before losing patience and just picking one out myself (let's just say Pomeranians, or this one at least, are cuter than they are smart and easy to train)...  So, Saturday.  And if you want an extra chance in the draw, go ahead and comment again on the giveaway post.  I'll put your name(s) in again.  And you can also still enter if you didn't before.

I'll have a nice long post with lots of pics in a couple of days.  Right before I got sick, I finished Emerald Mermaid on someone's RR and progressed quite a bit on my Chatelaine Beaded Dragonfly Tile.  Plus, you have to see this new piece of fabric from Sunny Dyes.  I love all of my pieces of fabric, but I think I might actually be IN love with this one and I'm thinking it'll be perfect for the new Mirabilia mermaid, Siren and the Shipwreck.

And now I'm off to take another nap and dream of fabrics.

  8. I had bronchitis for about two weeks, too! Yuck!! Glad things are improving.

    Make sure you share a picture of your new "love." (And "someone's" RR)

    I think it would be tough to say which was worse, flu vs. no stashing. You're probably right about the flu, but so close...

  9. Sorry to hear you were not feeling well. Lots of stitching is the best remedy.
