Wishing you...

...a very Happy Easter!


These fabrics Easter eggs were the ones I made last year. They were a free holiday pattern from Letty and great fun to make. Now a joy to bring back out a year later. We have a long holiday weekend here in Holland so I am off to Cranberry Cottage with a bag packed with a couple of UFOs I would like to finish this coming week. Stay tuned for some photos...

I had hoped to get around to more of your blogs but just don't seem to have enough hours in a day. Well, actually since we changed our clocks here this past weekend, I did loose an hour after all. *grins*

Enjoy your weekend and the holiday! Will you have time to stitch or quilt?

I hope you have a lovely Easter weekend Heidi. Cranberry Cottage sounds like a fun place to spend it. I will be spending some of my weekend stitching because my daughters best friend loves anything handmade, so a cross-stitched bunny pillow seemed just right :) Again Happy Easter and happy stitching!

Hugs from California!

It sounds like you have a wonderful Easter weekend planned. Enjoy.

Oh, and Kaje's wrist/hand is healing very well. The hand surgeon said she was on her way to permanent loss of function with the way the ganglion had invaded the joint and nerves. I'm really glad we had it done so she could regain full function and mobility. She has to wear the bandages now until the tape falls off the incision so she still has a sympathy bandage on when she's out of the house bz it's gross to look at through the clear tape and clear bandages.

Lieverd, allereerst van Harte Gefeliciteerd met de koop van jullie nieuwe huis! LEUK LEUK LEUK... En ik wens jou en je lieverd ook hele fijne Paasdagen toe, ik probeer inderdaad mijn rozenkrans quilt op te pakken. Maand April wordt heel druk voor mij op m'n werk, dus van handwerken zal er niet zoveel van terecht komen. Hele dikke zoen en lieve warme lentegroeten van Cin x

Happy Easter Heidi,enjoy your weekend, hope the weather is kind to you,but I expect you will be snuggled up with your stitching and "who cares how much it may storm I have stitching to keep me warm"
I will be stitching as it is raining here.

Happy Easter, dear Heidi, and enjoy your weekend at CC as much as possible (pity the weather won't be that good)! I hope to make some stitches too. I am going to have a 'cleaning round' today and then I really want some days off too ;) Uncle Daan is coming on Easter Monday, fun.

Groetjes, ook aan Jos en Dagi natuurlijk & hugs,
Carolien

Hope you had a wonderful rest at Cranberry Cottage with some good stitching time. I love the new header photo, it's perfect!

It takes me a week now to recover from losing that hour of sleep. I love that extra one in the fall though.
