Snowman Quilt Finished & Big News


I finally finished my Snowman Quilt and I am quite happy with how it has turned out.
It is made in flannel with wadding in between.
The glory of this quilt is, I don't need to send it to the quilter OR have to hand sew a binding on!


This is the front & back of the quilt

and this shows off the front and the back at the same time.

Now the big news.....
after all the time I have been whinging and complaining about my job (of 14 years) and being told by my doctor to resign as my blood pressure was still at 160/90 even though I am on 2 lots of daily blood pressure tablets.... I RESIGNED FROM MY JOB!

No - I don't have another job to go to, 
and Yes - I do need a job,
and Yes - my blood pressure has dropped dramatically!

I have been "unemployed" for 2 weeks now (let's call it temporary retirement!), and I have just come back from staying with a friend "in the sticks" (no mobile phone coverage, no TV or Radio, but plenty of fresh air), then visited my daughter & grand children.
I want to tidy up a few things and then I will look for new employment.

Until next post...
