Temptation!!!

After weeks resisting I gave in after I saw Georgie's package arriving at hers! http://whoomsa.blogspot.com/
My excuse...it is an early birthday present. Actually it won't be that early when it gets here as it is only a few more weeks :-) Perfect!!!


Here you can see the design plus more information:

Of course I had to order the extras as well just like Georgie so the pins and scissors are coming as well!! ;-)

Update!

Finally an update...

First of all we went to Colorado to spend a few days with Katrina (http://theneedlespromise.blogspot.com/) and we sure had lots of fun. Katrina picked us up at Denver Airport and in the next few days we saw a lot of the area. Beside going to see the sights we also went to Fanci Mats in Denver and I managed to add some more to my stash. We chatted a lot and managed to get some stitching done too!! I also met Danya and Vicky who are in my stitching group at Yahoo. It was great fun to meet them as well and we had a lovely afternoon where we chatted and stitched together.

While we were in Colorado we got the terrible news one of our friends from our little stitching group online died at the very young age of 50. Sue Clout of New Zealand has been a friend for many years and we did do a lot of chatting online and we also did a lot of exchanges. We also had been in a few Round Robins together. Even though we never met in real life we got to know each other so well and it is such a loss. The gifts she has stitched me I will treasure and we will miss her stories about her life, stitching and New Zealand! My thoughts are with her husband and 3 children. She was an amazing woman!

Fast forward...where has the summer gone??? DD is back to school and went to a new one. She started Middle School and is taking the bus now. A change for her as well as for me! I am still allowed to walk her to the bus stop in the morning though LOL. My little girl is growing up fast, it feels it was only yesterday I brought her to Kindergarten.
