i suggest you spend the next two weeks piecing instead of mending.
btw, what is mending, never heard of it before. )
oh and eat some dark chocolate, it always helps.
tell us more about that retreat.

Gads, I know this isn't really an awful thing but I'm feeling bereft. The
knee lift on my Bernina no longer works.......it seemed loose and kept
falling out but it worked. Now, it doesn't work at all.

I have a dandy featherweight that I've done loads of piecing with. But,
with three DS, one DH and me, we have lots of mending. The sweet
featherweight doesn't do the trick.

At least two weeks....... 8 - (

I have to have it back by the 9th as I'm going to a retreat.....

Enough whining for now--back to cleaning the table!

Happy quilting,

Lenore
