6 sleeps and counting down till I leave for my holiday, I am getting very excited but feeling tired from trying to get done to have the house organized before I go…I spent time in the garden before heading off for a midday dental appointment, I thought I was going to be late but got a lucky carpark and then when I got into the dentist the tooth that needed a replacement filling had no nerve, without the nerve there is no feeling and no need for an injection and no numb mouth.
Between the dentist and picking my neice up from school I visited Sharon who showed me The Batsford Encyclopaedia of Embroidery Stitches by Anne Butler, that She found at the lifeline book fair…A wonderful variety of different stitches all well illustrated with simple line drawings, an inspirtional book…I want a copy…I made sketches in my visual journal of a few stitches although looking at them tonight the look a bit like hieroglyphs, I hope that I can translate them back into the stitches.

We’ve been traveling and I haven’t gotten to look at blogs, but I wanted to wish you a happy holiday if I don’t get back before then! I will try to answer your message tomorrow – I just saw it as I downloaded mail.
We’re in the forest, and I love it – but can only do e-mail when the generator’s running!
I always love a look in your sketch book.

Nice work on the stitches, and your very tidy and organized, I see as well.
