If you get tired of all that walking, you can refresh yourself at one of the many café bars in the city. There's a wide variety of homely and old fashioned ones.

The quilt (被子) took a lot of time. But the messages on it were meaningful.
When I started my current project, I woke up every day with new ideas and fresh enthusiasm. I really believed in the importance of what I wanted to create, and I had my husband, Claudio, to cheer me on. But then, things had gotten hard. I injured my shoulder and my recovery was slow. In the middle of it, I lost Claudio to cancer. I was discouraged, lonely, and without Claudio's comfort. Facing down the half finished quilt in my sewing room one morning soon after his death, I could hardly gather the energy to sew it.
The quilt was meant to be a way to keep my old nursing class together. We'd graduated from Mercy College over 40 years before and quickly worked all over the country. After our last anniversary party, I tried to find ways for everyone to stay in touch, but nothing ever seemed to work out. I knew I needed to find a connection to share at a distance. I thought about a quilt.
I got in touch with as many of my old classmates as I could. Everyone who wanted to join the project was sent a piece of fabric (布料). They could sign it or write a personal message. Once I got the pieces back, I'd sew them into the finished piece.
I rubbed my painful shoulder and ran my hand over the unfinished quilt. Even after several operations, movement in my left arm was limited. There was still so much to do. Our class's forty fifth anniversary party was coming up but my heart wasn't in this project anymore. With Claudio's encouragement I'd kept at it despite my painful shoulder. But Claudio was gone now. Working on the quilt was impossible with my aches and pains. Why was I even trying I covered up my sewing machine and left the quilt as it was.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式作答。
Weeks passed but I didn't sew a thing.__________________________________________

参考范文：
Weeks passed but I didn't sew a thing.I saw it one afternoon when I went into my sewing room.Quilting pieces covered the table.They were filled with colorful messages from my old classmates at Mercy College.I picked one up：“Mercy sisters—friends forever！”The handwriting was messy，but the statement was true.I could almost imagine my old friends right beside me，whispering words of hope and love.Maybe I'm not as alone as I thought.Suddenly my project no longer seemed so frightening.No time to waste.I uncovered my sewing machine and got to work.
I arrived at our forty fifth anniversary party.I was equipped with pictures of the finished quilt.The ladies cheered as the photos went from hand to hand，one dear friend to another.I couldn't wait for them to hold the real thing，for them to be wrapped in the comfort of old friends，just like I had been when I needed it most.
