Very nice lino print. Are you planning to make cards to sell---or are you going to use them either for last year's Holiday Letter or have them handy to this year's letter? (joke - last year was such a bad year I never got one written. I don't think I would want to hear about all gloomy and illness - my family's year).
Thank you for the inspiration and amazement you have wrought. I had been reading your blog for a while, finding it from another sewing blog (as you do) when I decided to go back and read all your archives. They were funny, poignant, scary, honest, but mostly inspirational. I have taken up knitting again because of your writing, and my teenage daughters have both started to learn. Thanks truly.
Ooooh - looks like a lovely Sunday! What a beautiful walk. (Looks out on concrete everywhere, feels somewhat envious)
As to the fabric you posted about - I'd be intrigued, but more intrigued if there was no sheerness about it ... what can I say, I'm shy ;-). BUT. Knit tube skirt? Rock it, lady! That would look awesome. Maybe even with some of your other drapey Japanese tops as well?
I live with my First Love in a rural idyll, after a lifetime in exile. In July 2007 he was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma: an incurable cancer of the blood plasma. We got married in December 2007. Carpe diem.
There is lots of wind and sky where I live, which blows me away.
I love reading and stitching and creating things.
I have two lovely children, a dog and my First Love.

Hi Roo!
I love the colour combination of the blanket. Reflects the colours of the previous pictures. Beautiful.

Thanks for the lovely pictures.

Fab photos! The blanket will be really pretty.
Even if Spring comes before the blanket is done, you have months of spring to work on it for next year's cooler temperatures. Looks lovely!
Thanks for the peek at such a tranquil part of the world that you live in!

Now I've taken a beautiful Sunday stroll in the Scottish countryside. Thank you!

Beautiful. Thanks for sharing. And your lino cut is a work of art.
