On the other hand, they all seem to spend a lot more time crafting than I can fit in. I've finally started to be quite picky about which ones I join in and I'm getting better at not working on more than a couple of projects at a time, but I still have a huge stack of UFOs.

I always whistfully think of the days when my children are grown and I will have days to myself to do what I want. Will life be as busy then as it is now? Probably, but I like to dream :)Kelly Casanovahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13089138869326091823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1556636739806282968.post-45459042835610614372016-04-29T15:00:44.310+10:002016-04-29T15:00:44.310+10:00I just love the little skirts you make!

Someday I will have grands to sew for and I will have time to do it too! :)<br />Another think I enjoy about visiting you is the changing of our seasons. We are going into Spring/Summer and you are transitioning into Fall/Winter. I must say that I am glad we are warming up. I'd love to come visit you in our winter months. They are terrible here. Well, I hope to be back around more frequently. baring nothing comes up again that knocks me out! :) LOL!
