New home, new problems..

But not big problems...i`m just cleaning and finding a spot to stitch...I need light and a comfy chair..which at this point seem to be on opposite sides of the room...



I`ve moved to Colorado Springs...my divorce is pending, and I am happier than I have been in years with a new man in my life...he is sweet and kind and loving...so finding a place to stitch is a minor problem to me..I have yet to move any large things here, so for now i`ll just use the end of the couch I guess...now if I can just convince the kittens that my thread is NOT their newest toy...

Thanks for all the lovely comments on my tool kit and on my blog...it means a lot that it is being read and enjoyed by stitchers...Hopefully it may inspire someone to pick up a needle and learn to stitch...I would like others to experience the joy needlework has brought to me...

It`s Remembrance Day....

And once again I am posting tributes on all the boards I belong to...and the lack of response never fails to amaze me..I don`t think many people even know what Remembrance Day is...other than a day off, that is...

I post about Remembrance Day to honor my dad, who was a WWII vet...

R.I.P. dad....

Oops..I forgot..

One of my favorite and necessary needlework must-haves...my tool kit...I took bits and ideas from other kits I had seen, (most notably from Merry Cox`s lovely patterns), and made a kit to hold my needles, pins and scissors...it travels everywhere with me, although plane travel makes it necessary to have to take all the sharp objects out and pack them in my suitcase, the kit goes in my purse or carry-on...I would be upset if I lost my scissors..heartbroken if I lost my kit..
