Good day. This is being written on Saturday afternoon. The last two weeks have been busy and wonderful. April 2nd and 16th, Cataract surgery was done on my eyes. The results have been very pleasing except for one thing. I can easily see the dust in my house now. Darn, I need to remedy that.
I used to wear contacts to see and used readers to do handwork. You need to be without contacts for one month before they can measure your eyes for IOL lens. My contacts ran out at the end of November and my bifocal glasses weren't proper enough to be able to see to sew fine work. (My cataract evaluation was the first week in December. First opening in the schedule for surgery was April.)
No problem now.
My April block for Laurel Ridge BOM is now done.
The buttons have now been stitched onto this project bag.
The pincushion has also been stitched. It is amazing how much clearer I can see the linen, easier to stitch. Now on to the scissor fob. That will be my slow stitching for Sunday.
May all of you have a Blessed Easter.

You gave me an early morning giggle with your comments about cataract surgery. I’m so happy you can see again, perhaps your vision will get blurry whenever you look at the dust :-). Your April blocks sure came out pretty. That project bag is the cutest! Great idea to cross stitch on it. What a pretty needle minder. Happy slow stitching to use :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you very much. I thought I could see before but now everything is so much sharper, clearer. I can see design changes that I made in embroidery. A good spring cleaning does need to be done.
DeleteCataract surgery is truly amazing! I dont know where the dust comes from, it just appears.
ReplyDeleteSo glad that the eye surgery has made your sewing easier. Your projects are wonderful. The dust will always be there.
