I can’t say I enjoyed working on this little wall/table top quilt, but it served the purpose of keeping my hands and mind occupied while I’ve been healing. It measures approximately 19 inches square. I’m thinking about leaving the edges curved and trying to bind it with a bias binding. I made an error in my light/dark sequence on the right side, and would like it better if I replaced the fourth unit from the top with a lighter fabric. I haven’t decided whether to leave it for the time being, or perhaps permanently.
The backordered EPP project arrived yesterday, but now that I’m becoming more mobile, I may resume work on an existing project instead. I have too many in-progress projects. Also, I think I may be able to sit at a sewing machine for short periods now.
My second follow-up with the ortho doctor happened today. He adjusted my brace where I can begin bending my knee up to 90 percent and he is setting up physical therapy for me, possibly as soon as next week. If things go well, I may be able to stop wearing the brace after my next appointment in two weeks!

it sounds like you leg/knee is starting to heal which is good. I tried EPP on apple cores some years back and it ended up being a small mat - I found it very tedious trying to do the curves good. How anyone can get this one very large is beyond me they must hold it a certain way when working on it.
I would be inclined to leave in the 4th down fabric if it is going to be a table topper. I might change it if it was going to be a wall hanging. It's very pretty with the assortment of fabrics you used.
I'm glad you are healing fast. That will sure feel good to be able to bend your knee.
