I'm sure many of you would love to see me get back to sewing, however nary a thread has passed through my fingers in months. I still need to finish Miss Moll Doll's vest which I started in October...it is almost there and will be revealed in a few weeks. Yup, a few weeks....I have been distracted with both the move and the holidays, but feel the beauty of quiet winter hours close at hand.
