I have the flu. Back in September I was the 12th person in my Dr.'s practice to get the vaccine, so naturally I though I was protected. Then we went on our cruise and I came home with some kind of bug, so I told myself that it hadn't been long enough since I got the shot, but I was definitely protected now. Immune system and all that. Friday morning I woke up with a sore throat, a fever and all the rest of it. So where are those antibodies when you need them?
But here is the news portion of this blog: a friend of mine has it too and went to the doctor, who told her that the CDC had sent out a warning about a very new and bad strain of flu going around. And guess what? We didn't hear about it on the nightly news because they are so busy reporting on a missing airplane. Now I know the plane went through a wormhole, but we'll never get the government to admit that.
Today I started feeling better, not well enough to go over to the studio and sew, but well enough to drag out my sketch book. I signed up for a craft show next month and decided maybe I'd make a few table runners to fill in the blank spaces in my display. First I started a Pinterest board on Quilted Table Runners, then I searched that site. I found a grand total of 4!! that looked interesting. Then I looked on Etsy and found a grand total of 0!! that looked interesting. Where is my inspiration? I guess I'm going to have to design them myself.
While looking, I found this blog with a really simple runner.
If all else fails, I can make this one. I'll just be sure to use fabric with shells or blue crabs on it, that always sells around here.
If you are a new follower, here is a link with instructions to an Easter table runner I made a few years ago for kids to color.
You've got plenty of time to make it, if you don't get the flu.
