YES, THOSE ARE BLISTERS!
(This is not the worst picture... The blisters got even larger)
I had to go to the doctor. My legs seemed to get worse everyday. I would go to sleep and expect to wake up with the blisters to be somewhat better, but NO... My legs had to have the worse sunburn the Dr. had seen (actually he said he'd only seen 1 other burn this bad). If I had been burned like this on the rest of my body I would have been put in the hospital.
William says I'm a freak for taking pictures of my blistered legs. -Maybe I am. I have been focused on them all week. It has been 1 1/2 weeks and it will still be awhile before they are healed. The blisters have gone down now and the skin is going to peel. It's tight and feels like cracking if I bend down or do anything.
On a positive note...The new Harry Potter book (book 7) was just released. I went to Barnes and Nobles at midnight to the 'party' and bought my book. I am slowly reading some everyday so I can savor. This is the last book.
I haven't really done any fiber/quilt related projects. I have quilted a bit on the US quilt -I've been working on for awhile now. The thing that keeps popping into my head is paint / collage.

Nancy, I am a doctor and wrote an article partly about sunburn. It has been accepted for publication (no payment, unfortunately, but I need some publications for my tenure application at a small and rinky-dink university). Would you give me permission to use the pic of your blistered sunburn?
