Sorry to be away so long.....

Hello my dear friends! I have been so long in posting on my blog. As you know, I have my mother visiting. I am off to the airport tomorrow morning to pick up three of my online friends who are joining us for a week. It is going to be great fun! I have known these ladies for three years but we have never actually met each other. Both my mother and I are looking forward to this time together. I think it is going to be like an adult version of a young girl's slumber party. Let's just hope Jos survives it all. He has taken the whole week off work to chauffeur one of the cars needed for all the sightseeing.

I have been busy working on some items for gifts but have to wait until tomorrow and the ladies have seen them before I can share some photos with you. In the meantime, here is a purse fob I made for another blogging friend. She reads my other blog so I am safe to share this little finish with you. She is a garden lover so I made this with a little butterfly.


I will share the photos of the gifts I made later this week. I am not able to get around to the blogs as I normally do but want to say hello and that I miss you all.

Hello Heidi
I understand you didn't have time to post on your Blog, it doesn't matter because we think of you while you enjoy the time with your mother. Have a good time with meeting your friends. I will see you, your mother and the ladies on Wednesday. Look forward to it! Heel veel groetjes, Elly

I am so anxious to meet Angela, Hazel and Joni. It is going to be great seeing all the quilt ladies on Wednesday evening also. What fun that they are cooking dutch dishes for us too.
Love you, and happy I am here with you.
Love you, Mom
