We interrupt this fabulous vacation for an important quilting announcement and a dose of reality. I'm unfortunately back from my vacation, which means I'm back to real life. I have to say, vaca...
The day after skiing and my spectacular face landing, everything in my body pretty much hurt and it was raining torrentially, so I decided to stay in. I spent a truly lovely day working on my woo...
Since the Eastern half of Scotland (just on the other side of the mountains that border Loch Ness) had a few days of snow, I decided that it was time to go skiing and headed off to the Cairngorm ...
I went to the Isle of Skye last Wednesday. It should have taken just under two hours from the Abbey, but it took me around four instead. The joy of traveling in the off season is that you have pl...

On Tuesday I had planned to head out to Skye, but I got up too late for the 2 hour journey each way, so I decided to head up towards the town of Loch Ness and then onto Inverness. One of the thin...
My first evening in the abbey I got a tour of the place and explanation of how everything works. Then I hauled my suitcases up four flights of stairs with the extremely appreciated help from the ...

My last couple of days in England were marked by, what for them, was a lot of snow. Just like in the US, when snow hits places that usually don't get snow, it shuts the place down. My plans for...

This is going to be a short one, because I'm dying to get to the Scotland stuff, but I'm so far behind on England, that I have to get those pics posted asap. Last Tuesday we went to Windsor and...
I had written and I thought posted this last night, and again twice tonight, but it looks like it didn't work for some reason, so here's what I think I wrote. Continuing with the "it's hard to f...

I was asked if I could make a yoga bag, and without thinking I said "sure!" Then I thought, hmmmm, can I make a yoga bag? Which was followed by research mode! I went online, thought about the h...
