new hst quilt

I have most of the top finished on a new batik HST quilt. We had a power outage last night and I stopped working on it for a while. I have to put the top and bottom borders on yet.
  Since, I was stopped, I took a project out and drew a design to use on it. It is not what I want but it is what I can do and not obsess about it. I don't really want to mark it. I don't really want to take forever to do it either. I lost too much time with over a month from the shoulder and pretty much the last 6 weeks from heart problems. I am bitter about the treatment too. I don't have anything WRONG... but I am on medicines and having side affects and my left arm and hand is screwed up. This is probably a repeat of my other bitching about it. Can't help it. My left hand is not quite useless but it hurts to use it and swells and turns RED!  they ruined it. I need it....and certainly for quilting.
   Hopefully I can post something finished soon. I have too many projects started.
Got most of my flowers planted. Weather had been showing nice enough to not worry. Now, it is not. Funny, it was all nice and now it is going to drop low just for one night. I am not diggin the stuff up. I am not going to plant the rest though untill that day is past.
