From Jacqueline

I always forgot to post a picture, but I got a wonderful birthdaypresent fom Jacqueline....

We are not very busy with postings

I just looked at how long it has been since we posted here.  So to get you all in the spirit of the holidays, here is our little tree.  It is an artificial tree, as we go to my daughter's for the actual holiday, but it nice to have this little one at home,

Happy Holidays to you all.

Edda's birthday gift arrived in Iceland.

Here is a picture of the birthday gift I send to Edda, she had her birthday in october.

Wonderful gift from Caroline

Hello all, me again!   Caroline sent me a small book with wonderful illustrations about Holland.   I had such fun looking at it all -  my younger brother and his family spent a year in Appeldorn when he worked for Philips so I could see some of the sights he had described to me.   What an interesting way to introduce your country Caroline.   Thank you so very very much.

And so you can all see what I mean here is a collage of some of the pages - I didn't include the wonderful story that went with it.   You will need to get your own book for that!

Spring Flowers fron New Zealand

Hello everyone - it's Spring here and today is a beautiful clear, warm day so I went around my garden taking photos of the flowers to show you.   I know it is Autumn for most of you so thought you might appreciate some added warmth!!

Hope you are all well and busy stitching, quilting and generally enjoying life.
