It all started just over three years ago...
Don't worry-I'll try to keep the three years brief! ;-)
Abbey's birthday is October 17th. I began a quilt for her just before she turned 6. After finishing the top, and not in time for her birthday, in late October I began experiencing the first neck pain...what would end up being over 3 years of daily neck/back/shoulder pain. So, I never got around to finishing her quilt. Every now and then on a good day, I would make a little progress. But I could never sew for more than an hour or so, and then I had to pay the price with an increase in pain.
But I am happy to report that on Friday, October 14, 2011, I FINALLY finished her quilt! Just in time for her 9th birthday!
She loves it, of course. It was only 3 years in the making! Little did I know what would happen, just a few short days later...part 2 coming soon.
