My dd#2 is visiting for 10 days from Ohio. We haven't seen each other in a YEAR! Yes, I know that's hard to believe, but hardly a day goes by without speaking by phone or playing a game of Literati together online.
Since I'm on heavy overtime (YEAH...the end is in site, next Friday is our done-date), dd has been entertaining herself sufficiently. Dh has really stepped up too (as a new stepfather), taking her to the driving range, and to visit the Sahauro National Park.
I made my first fabric postcard about a month ago, and dd#2 saw it. SHE'S HOOKED. She spent literally ALL day in my sewing studio, creating! OMG, I'm in awe. She made an apron in 7th grade, but that was the only time she ever has sewn. (edit: #3 made the apron, #2 made a Smiley Faced pillow, lol-oops!). ANYWAY, She only asked a few questions, and I'm totally impressed. Please go take a look and leave a note of encouragement if you have a moment, Erika's blog.
dd#3 arrives next Thursday, we have our annual Sister's Reunion next weekend. I hear she's interested in purchasing a sewing machine, could I possibly be lucky enough to have cultured TWO artists? One can only hope!!!

Have some great family bonding and Erika, be sure and leave your mother's sewing maching and her stash there when you leave! ( I have kids who borrow MY things all the time!)
Fitzy, still waiting on the post about the quilt hangers! I want to see pics! Did you use them? Do you have a quilt hung already? Come on, out with it LOL
Sounds like a fantastic week and a great way to end all of that overtime. Enjoy!
Fantastic fabric postcard! My daughter is borrowing a sewing machine currently, I am in deep shock! (Happy, and yet shocked, too!)
Hi Nancy,
Your PIF gift is on its way to you. I hope you enjoy it.
