Joshua update 8/6–quilt blocks!
Sometime today, Monday, we will find out how the skin grafts did…. if well, then Joshua should be able to come home this week (and sooner is better!). In the meantime, it is a waiting game…keeping his foot elevated (so as not to float the skin grafts off…literally! eeek!). But blocks have been arriving by the half dozen…another six or so arrived in Saturday’s mail, which Paul brought with him to the hospital on Sunday. So, I added the new ones to the ones already up there, and laid them all out on the bench where Paul and I take turns sleeping.
The first photo is of the 15 blocks we had in the morning (when the light in the room was better). You can see a bit of the lap quilt from our sofa peeking out at the ends…that room desperately needed color and we needed a blankie!
This second photo shows more blocks but the photo isn’t as good….

The different color trim makes this quilt. The key is to not get hung up on over thinking that part.
