OK, three days ago it was snowing. Now it’s 68 degrees and pouring! We had awful thunderstorms during the night. I swear I kept having visions of lightning striking the house.

I know that some of you must think that something horrible had to have happened to me to cause such an absence. NOPE, just life. I have been making it up to you though. I have been working my little fingers to the bone kicking out new pattern collections and stitching examples to [...]
