Three months in France sounds unbelievable, how fantastic is that?!!<br /><br />Kateharmony and rosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06514921461051048885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6754404636941782233.post-2466896449941380432010-01-06T12:27:47.721-08:002010-01-06T12:27:47.721-08:00Hi there!

What is a "gites"? I learned...Hi Helsie,<br />What is a "gites"? I learned to sew from my college roommates - both were good teachers and that's what they ended up doing. One is still teaching (1st grade) and the other just retired with over 30 years at her current school system ( she has a doctorate and taught 10th or 11th grade). Me - I was a Philosophy major who ended up working in the group health and dental insurance industry with about 30 years there when I retired. Now I can't believe my working career is over but I LOVE retirement. Anyways back to sewing - I have two sewing machines (New Home now called Janone and my paternal Grandmother's 1940s Singer) and a Viking serger. Even with my experience I had trouble "sewing in the ditch" too. There must be a knack to it. Your quilt and pillow cover are beautiful - I love the colors. Today I'm catching up with laundry which I haven't done since Christmas. I have two loads of everything to do but now we'll have underwear and socks again. LOL! <br /><br />Teacup Lane (Sandy)Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04664295814876984709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6754404636941782233.post-86929984388648529522010-01-06T08:27:09.606-08:002010-01-06T08:27:09.606-08:00Wait, wait, wait, back up...

What would we do without your daily cheers.<br /><br />Think about it.<br /><br />Love those blues and yellows... I'm thinking BlueBerry Lemonade. So, bright and cheerie.<br /><br />Have a fun time with all these colors.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13721336502963839799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6754404636941782233.post-11361819471847289612010-01-06T07:54:45.227-08:002010-01-06T07:54:45.227-08:00Hi clever you!

I certainly have not got the patience to do anything like this! It will look so beautiful on the bed.<br />I should think you're really looking forward to your new adventure. We've had a load of snow spent the morning shovelling out! <br />Hugs and Love SuexMrs Twins https://www.blogger.com/profile/06396619431808463904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6754404636941782233.post-84675955858978329872010-01-06T06:11:33.637-08:002010-01-06T06:11:33.637-08:00Hi Helen I am just trying to catch up with everyo...Hi Helen I am just trying to catch up with everyone - I have major computer problems and have had to resort to using an extremely old laptop which is reeeaally slow!!!
