I CAN SEE CLEARLY NOW.....
Sorry, couldn't resist that title today! I'm doing really well after the cataract surgery last Thursday, in fact I have to keep touching wood as I can't quite believe that it's worked so quickly and well. I'm typing this on the PC without any reading glasses, everything is sharp whereas before it was all one big blur. The team at the hospital were wonderful and I was seeing ok after a few hours. I've been very very careful about following the after care rules and had a treat yesterday of going to my hairdresser for a wash and quick blow dry...all with the aid of my new favourite bit of kit:
My 3M safety glasses, £2.99 off Amazon - they have been invaluable for keeping my eyes protected. My friend reckons I need to bling them up with a bit of diamante lol!
As it's been very windy I've not been out much but I have felt like crafting so I have been in the JanCave:
My plan is to work my way through all the strips and make loads of quilt squares. I have everything in reach so I don't have to bend over (a big no no) - it's mindless crafting really but that, together with listening to audio books, is helping me a lot. I'm not very good at sitting still.....
I do ten blocks at a time and just chain piece them through the machine...
And then trim them up which is the magic process as far as I'm concerned!
I have been knitting too, I found this pattern for a chocolate Orange cover and gave it a go:
Cute huh?! It's King Cole tinsel yarn which has the odd fleck of sparkly in it and it's so easy to make, all in one piece. The pattern has two ears but I prefer it without. I think this might be popular, I'm trying it in a white and silver too.
Hope you've had a great week, thanks to everyone who has messaged wishing me well and especially Twiglet and Wipso for the beautiful flowers, they're gorgeous xxxxx
Have a good week!
