Well, last night was my first Friday Night with Friends. Early in the night I went walking into our bedroom without turning on the light, and stubbed my toe badly on a chair which isnt usually there. It is so painful but…
If I wasnt signed to do FNWF I think I would have been in a sad and sorry crumpled heap of misery. But I couldnt do that, so I gritted my teeth, suffered the pain , and carried on like a trooper. Here is the end result of my painful night.
All the pieces cut, and the applique pieces in place. Now to stitch them down.
In spite of my “terrible” injury, it was a very productive night. I had forgotten how long it takes to prepare applique with such little pieces.
And thank you Cheryl for organising our very wonderful FNWF. It is such fun.
My toe is badly bruised, swollen and a bit painful to walk around, but not as bad as it was last night.
I wonder if Harry will share? No I dont think so.

Oh no not good Marilyn. Hope it heals soon.
Love the project you worked on. Yes applique takes ages.. enjoy.
Hmmmm Yes I would like some of that oo Harry...
Love the applique piece - I think you should have your own ice cream considering your injury - a bit of pampering goes a long way!
Ohhh Nooo Marilyn hope your toe heals quickly,great work for friday night and nope dont think Harry will part with it,lol.xx
Bonjour from France.
I just popped over from Cherylls' to admire your work and to wish you a Bonne Annee.
You certainly had a busy evening.

Hey Roomie, from very recent experience I have found out that you shouldn't ignore a very painful, swollen toe after you have knocked it - GO AND GET IT CHECKED OUT!!! was that loud enough for you? Go on, do it
lots of hugs
Miche'le
p.s. I do love your productive nights work though xx
Ouch!!! You poorthing!! Miche'le is right though, it might be wise to get it checked out. Love your stitching, what a trooper you are to keep sewing despite the pain ;o).
Big hugs
Joy xx

OUCH Marilyn! Glad you were still able to be productive! Your blog header looks great too!
Hope your toe is better Marilyn. The hanging is cute. Hugs,xx.
Oh you poor thing!!! Still, you did very well playing with us all at FNWF I think. Under extreme conditions you managed a great block. :)
Love your applique! hope your toes is feeling better.
Ouch!!! Poor toe! I am glad you could still get your stitching done. Lovely applique. Yes the fun part is definitely not the preparations.
Hugs x
Oh you poor thing - be careful, I broke a couple of toes doing that. My son is sitting with his foot up right now, he fell on the ice a few days ago and his whole foot is a huge swollen bruise. I can't believe you got so much done with your foot hurting so badly. I LOVE that little quilt. Love love love. And love the cute little pic of Harry too! Yum, I wouldn't share either!
oh no Marilyn, I hope it feels better really soon, sore toes are the pits!
You've made a great start to the Market Day Wallet, I have fabrics ready to start mine... at some point... !

You poor thing, but you did produce a wonderful project, take care of the toe..
I like Birdhouse designs but I don't think that I have seen this one. It is going to be worth all the effort. Wishing your toe a quick recovery.
OUCH!.......that's gotta hurt, your stitching is really beautiful though.......I love the way Harry's eyeing you warily over the top of his cornet.
Oh that is soooo painful. Good on you for keeping on with the applique preparation. It was well worth it, it is very cute. I imagine Harry did not share, not enough to do that - sorry! Tracee xx
Poor you! Your wallet is looking lovely though, Wendy
OW!! Toes hurt when you stub them! Glad you soldiered on and made such great progress on your project and hope your toe feels better now. lv,

I sincerely hope you're feeling better today. That is really a painful injury. Nevertheless you manage to make a wonderful project. I wonder what you could do if you weren't in pain.
Hugs,
Teresa
Nothing hurts like a stubbed toe. You certainly managed to do some great sewing though. The appliqué looks fabulous.
I think you should get a special bravery medal for sewing with a stubbed toe. For doing a great job too. Love the little landscape. It's going on my 'to do' list ;o)
Hi Marilyn,
Oh you poor thing, I hope your toe is alright. It really does hurt big time when you stub your toe!! Just as well there was FNwF's on, it would've made you feel lots better. Nope....I don't think Harry is going to share! lol.
Cheers, Anita.
Hi Marilyn. Do you think you've broken your toe? I broke my little toe once and it hurt for months! On a brighter note, your applique is gorgeous. Well done!
Oh darling girl....not good....sounds like something I would do....and DO do...often!!! Hope it's better now! At least you remembered FNWF....I looked out for it tonight!!! LOL I'm a dillypot!......Hope Harry shared!!? Seems like you needed it...still, the applique looks great!
sugary hugs sweety
Wendy :O) xox
