[sigh] Hopefully I can join in one of these days.<br /><br />I totally agree with your statement about switching between over 1 on 30 count and over 2 on 40 count. I felt the same way.

I have to scamper over there to ogle it in detail. I hear you about enjoying a routine and not having someone underfoot, even if we cherish them. BF has to take a class Saturday mornings and will be leaving the house at 8 a.m and not returning until afternoon. I can get a whole lot of stitching done then. <br /><br />Happy New Year Margaret!Glennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02331252407069170477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3789554235806283705.post-75833844221473128382010-01-14T04:44:08.513-08:002010-01-14T04:44:08.513-08:00So glad to see you posting again!

I have gone from 25ct with over ones and two's to over ones on 32ct to 40ct and back to 35ct.

I love Elizabeth Inman and now I'm going to have to do that one (or shall we say, add it to the stash pile!! UGH). I love that sampler a lot and wonder why I never remember seeing it.<br /><br />You're making good progress on the Alphabets and on AAWFAA too. I think that startitis is just part of the new year thing, don't you? And I saw that discussion about the Quakers start - notice I didn't comment. I've got too many startitis projects of my own to add another one.
