Another UFO done

Thanks for all your kind words about my Mum. She has improved but her personality has changed and she thinks I'm one of her carers and doesn't like me. That may change again but I'm trying to stay focused on my Mum as she was.
I've been making Xmas table runners for the dementia unit so they can add a bit of colour to her surroundings.
In the meantime here's another UFO someone donated for one of my charities. The pansy fabric is beautiful and will be much loved by the recipient. I only quilted and bound this one.
I hope those who celebrate Thanksgiving are having a lovely peaceful family holiday. DH and I are enjoying watching Australia and England play cricket in The Ashes series, and I'm handsewing and finishing off UFOs. Hope to have another photo of a finish tomorrow.

Some more UFO's finished

It's been a busy time as my Mum isn't well. She had another stroke and was unresponsive so we prepared for her passing and she woke up after 9 hours. She has improved a bit and is eating and drinking again now but the Dr expects she will have another stroke as they are becoming more frequent. I've promised some Xmas table toppers and a wall hanging for the dementia care unit where she lives, so that is next on my list of projects.
I've also been busy getting the next shipment of charity quilts ready to post and this is one of the donated UFOs I finished. I have over 70 quilts to send off and most are large so will be much appreciated. More photos to follow now that I'm back blogging again. I have been reading lots of blogs as time allows, but not always leaving comments so please know that I'm still here in the ring.
