Day three of laying in bed hacking up lung so hard that my ribs hurt and my abs hurt like I've been doing crunches non-stop for all three days. Which, if you saw me hacking, you'd know to be true.

But every cloud has a silver lining, and here's mine: I've just listed two quilts on Etsy. There's a Red Ribbons and Hearts quilt that I made for an AIDS auction that never happened. Instead, I'm going to donate half the sale price to CareResource, the AIDS organization on whose board I once sat.

Tante Leah's Handmades. On line and on sale now.
