A foggy morning and the light was bad for photography when we walked. Coming out of the greenbelt trail, I stepped into a small hole and went down sideways across the curb into the street. I should have been more attentive, since I nearly fell into the same hole yesterday. Was able to complete the rest of my walk, maybe another mile, but as the day wore on, I could feel the stiffness set in. I landed sideways, so my hip, shoulder and elbow took the worst of it, but my ribcage was jostled enough that there is a lot of ache on that side of my torso as well.
I managed to get a little quilt piecing and a little tidying up done in the quiltorium, but gave up after lunch and sat and crocheted for a while in front of the TV. Digging through the archives, here are a few more quilt photos. The first is a small wallhanging that I made with a specialty twist ruler. Can't remember the name of the technique, if you know, please leave a comment and clue me in.
And this is a machine quilting sampler that I made using some old nine patch swap blocks from years ago. From an online group called the Beehive and a group that preceded that one. We've been online quilting friends for a long time now. I worked on the Lazy Sunday top, above at one of our yearly get togethers, in Shipshewana. Can't remember if it was 2013 or 2014.

Next up is Bonnie Hunter's Lazy Sunday mystery from a few years back. Yet to be quilted.
