Where did last week go?

Dunno, I know it happened but it was done in slow motion and non-stop action.  I was teaching classes from Thursday through Friday evening.  Hubby came somewhere in there and spent a super long weekend with us.  We had a passing in the family and attended a couple events for them - very sad.  Looked at a house.  Celebrated a late valentine date.  And just basically held on to my hubby as long as I could before he left on Monday morning.  Meaning, wasn't near the computer for about 5 days.  Priorities, ya know?

When hubby is in town and when I do a lot of classes, I take a long blog hiatus.  Which means I do have a lot to share and catch up - - somehow.  :)

First, let's start off with goodies in the mail -from Sandi in Minnesota.  She was my partner in the Mug Rug Swap and I got her wonderful package earlier this week:
She said she was inspired by my blog for one mug rug (obviously) and the other was inspired by my post regarding the Knoxville Modern Quilt Guild.  I love the entire package and both mug rugs are being used right now! One sits by my computer and the other is sitting beside my sewing machine!  Thank you again Sandi!

I finished up my mug rugs and they are on their way to their new home. . . .

Been busy sewing here and there and almost finished this little runner. . . it's going out tomorrow for the Seasonal Swap.  It's new home is a regular reader, is it coming to you?

So much to catch up on.

  5. I am "sew happy" that you liked your mug rugs and have given them homes. So sorry, though, for your family loss and the ups and downs of a traveling hubby. Same thing here. And I seem to go for days without blogging lately as things get so busy. That is just life, I guess. Your mug rugs are lovely and the tablerunner is gorgeous!! Someone is going to be very lucky to receive that one! Have a great weekend, Toni!

  6. I think you absolutely have your priorities right! Blogland and hobbies can't wait, but relationships can't. Look forward to seeing what you are making whenever you get the time.
