Chatter talk and "another" current project - 30 October 2017

NO, it cannot be the 30th of October already.  Checked two different calendars - and alas, it is.  I could claim I slept through the past couple of months..and that would be too far from the truth. Finally admitted defeat with both knees loudly complaining when climbing stairs.  Heck, getting out of bed or a chair became more challenging.  With nerves of steel (ha), made an appointment with our orthopedic doctor.  Isn't it funny - the older we get, we have "our" specialty doctors.  Family doctor, asthma doctor, orthopedic doctor...  This particular doctor is an amazing doctor.  For starters, he he replaced both of Riley's knees over 5 years ago.  He goes on a mission trip once a year to use his skills in those remote places that rarely see doctors.  Amazing, right?   Knees are fine.  Lots of arthritis but all else is good.  A shot of cortisone in each knee and left with sound advice:  MOVE MORE.   So what does this have to do with quilting?  Absolutely nothing -
