Moonglow Progress - Centre Panel Done

I'm nearly near the end of all my UFO's, only a couple more to get quilted and I'm all caught up. I've been really sick with the flu for a week. Weak as a kitten, about the only thing I could do was sit on the couch and work my way through my IQ backlog (I didn't like S2 of True Detective as much as the first one). Only thing I could do was hand sewing. So I worked my way through my Moonglow rows. The rows were done, I just needed to sew them together. Which I have now done.

UFO Update (Sort Of)

So, I'd planned on having a nice update on the current UFO I am trying to finish. Well, on the bright side, the top is now done. I plan on sending it to a shop to be quilted. I have come to the realisation that I will never get any quilts done if I hand quilt them all. So this lap quilt is a nice test run. I did take photo's of it last week, but the light was poor and the colours were way off. I had planned on taking more photos over the weekend, but a combination of over cast skies and a sudden urge to clean (which happens so rarely is should never be put off) and I didn't get it done. Also, I have totally stuffed my neck. No lateral movement at all. So, some sewing done (couldn't do much more than watch tv for two days) and a much cleaners craft room still counts as a win. I hope to have photos in the next couple of days. Might need to bring to work with me to get a day time shot.
