Disappearing 9-patch

This lovely batik in Autumn colours kept me busy for the first part of the week and what a week it was.

One of the first friends I made when we moved to Bloemfontein in 1987 went to visit her kids in Mauritius, contracted gastro, and thought it was over when she, one morning, couldn’t move properly and had double vision.  She is now still in ICU over there diagnosed with Guillain BarrĂ© syndrome.  The doctors took her cellular phone away, her husband could only get a flight for tomorrow and it is absolutely frustrating to sit on this side having no means of finding out how she’s doing.

I find quilting distracts me from constantly worrying and wondering about her.  Quilting this beauty did just that.
