Keep an eye on the Road
Posted on August 3, 2016 by bdieges in BlogBy now you know I like a road trip, so I get some handwork done! Why is that?

Most of the kits were animal and flower designs, with wool yarn and […]

Sorry it has taken me so long, but I’d rather be stitching, than computing, but it seems sometimes that is all that I am doing! Finished the center setting units. At first I thought, […]
