    Henry, i havent been on here in a couple weeks, i just seem to disappear in the winter lol, but just popped in here and saw your beautiful quilting photos. You make it look so easy. I am trying so hard to hand quilt right now, been trying to do it in my lap without a frame, maybe i need to try it your way. I tried a pvc frame tonight that i picked up from a thrift store, all i managed to do was break two fingernails trying to pop the plastic pieces on, so i might have a round wooden hoop around here, i might try that. I find the hand sewing very relaxing too, except i just cant get it set up in a comfortable way to do it. You make it look easy my friend :)

    well good to see you back. I have been wondering where you were at. So are you still enjoying the quilt I sent you?
    Well the hand quilting has been a challenge and it is taking a while. But it is relaxing and having that wooden hoop is helping. :)

    I've been wondering where i am too :) I've been getting the beginning of the winter blues, and it's hitting me hard tonight, so was just gonna do that, go snuggle up in your quilt, that will be just perfect, and gonna up my happy pill tonight too, and that will help.
