Suture for a Living  (RL Bates)

Description from the blog:

I am a plastic surgeon in Little Rock, AR. I may “suture for a living”, but I “live to sew”. When I can, I sew. These days most of my sewing is piecing quilts. I love the patterns and interplay of the fabric color. I would like to explore writing about medical/surgical topics as well as sewing/quilting topics. I will do my best to make sure both are represented accurately as I share with both colleagues and the general public.

I am married to a wonderful man. We were not blessed with children, but have many nieces & nephews. We have two chocolate labradors, Girlfriend & Rusty, who are my “personal trainers”.
