Where has the time gone

It has been forever since I have had time to write in my blog. Please forgive me. Have been on the road for the past 6 weeks. Going to visit friends in North Carolina, attending a stitching seminar in Louisville, KY, going back and forth to our condo in Florida and visiting friends in Mt Dora, Florida. All the while trying to stitch, keep up with e-mails, which I am almost caught up with, housework, laundry, and yard work.

I thought with this move my life would be calmer since I was new to the area and didn't know anyone. While, it seems that I am within 1 1/2 to 3 1/2 hours away from many friends who have also moved from Florida. I am not complaining - my life is very full - sometimes TOO FULL ;o) but I wouldn't have it any other way.

Another project that I did was to empty the last 11 dish pack boxes - these were the boxes that were packed when we left Miami, Florida 4 years ago. It was like Christmas morning. Now I am trying desperately to find homes for my new found old things.


This is a little Halloween piece that I stitched but as of yet have not put it into a frame or pillow or something. The picture is a bit fuzzy - sorry, but it is a darling piece and it is stitched over one on 36 count I think.

Thank you for dropping in and I hope to be much better with my entries.

With stitches, fabric and fibers ----- Roberta
