The kids were off school for half term and spent a couple of weeks in England with their father (from whom I'm divorced), so that's why I could go!

just sat here at pc and went to a museum! :D K, your too kind. I love this stuff, it's so fascinating. How sweet of hubby to take you there. nine hours is a bit of a trip, but then, I'm a homebody, tied to the potty :shock: uggh..sometimes when i click, my words disappear.
oh well, was fun here. hope you had lots of fun.

Oh I simply loved that trip to Holland with you, those quilts were awesome and I particularly liked the baafequilt. Those aprons were particularly touching.

You have come back full of enthusiasm, canīt wait to see what you make, cīmon hurry up.

Elle, we've got SUNSHINE here - it was in the twenties yesterday (I mean celsius!), I even got a little sunburn! So the sewing is on hold and the garden's getting some attention! :D

Yep we have too. Colin got a car parking fined last week so off to the Police Station we go. They took our car park away and built a Theatre so we all have a big problem parking here, we are going to try to get it reduced. :? Have a nice day gardening.

Right now I'm making the quilt on the right of your first picture. It's a Kaffe Fasset quilt from Passionate patchwork. Very big project.
