Surprise!

I know, I know

I am still here and still stitching

and receiving emails regarding my tardiness towards my blog.

 

No excuses are believable

and I really have none anyway.

Well other than that

little darling Grand-daughter of ours. 

 

I have to wonder where the last 9 months has gone

 not to mention the last 25 years. 

In understanding the process of life,

somewhat, sorta,

it is easy to say the older we get

the more we have to compare our time with

so it tends to go quicker. 

 

On the stitching side of things,

a wonderful group Stitching Sisters

and including The 4 from Forest,  

spent a few hours together last May

and silly me spit out a request,

to which they all jumped on 

faster than I really thought about

what was coming out of my mouth....

Damn filter must have been plugged.

Anyway without hesitation,

these wonderful women each stitched

 a special little tribute for our little Princess

and those who follow.

 

Stitching on this was a tad time consuming

but the finishing was quick and easy.

I might just add that this treasure was completely

finished by the time we left to go to our beloved

Brentwood on the Beach this May.

Back where it all began,

and let me tell you what a relief it was

to have it totally finished!

 

And without further adieu. 

 

 
 

shy of the shadow, here it is

and what a wonderful family heirloom!

 

I thank each and every person who contributed

to this amazing blanket and appreciate every bit of your determination and dedication.

 

Here is our little Princess.

 

As time goes on,

be assured that she will be stitching up

her own little storm

and never have to go to the stores

to begin her own stash room...

(gotta love beneficiaries)

 

Well, I think that is enough for now

so I will wish you the best of best

and the safest way home.

 

Cheers
