See how far I am behind now, just commenting. If I read my google reader I sometimes comment on the most recent ones, then go backwards. I certainly should be stitching more, lol <br />Take Care!!Ranaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03733020486559004025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29775806.post-24195545490679537622010-04-02T16:08:06.061+01:002010-04-02T16:08:06.061+01:00Yep, it gets harder to keep up as new blogs are fo...Yep, it gets harder to keep up as new blogs are found - but there are so many inspiring ones out there. :0)<br />I don't blame you for hanging on to the finish - beautiful!

But it's a good thing--blogging has really enriched my life. <br /><br />Your finishes are beautiful! I love the sampler, and the knitting is so cool! YGG! Lily's poem--oh my goodness! Wow.

On the other, I'm trying to reduce my computer time (just not feeling it) so I can get more things done, including stitching! <br /><br />I even made something for a giveaway, and though it's been ready for 2 days I just can't gather the oomph to make the post about it! <br /><br />This is such lovely stitching--and the knitting, too! I've been trying my hand at making staci's dishcloths lately--I don't get how I can crochet but knitting just doesn't take--just remembered that enormous blanket I crocheted about 6 years ago..that probably is what made me level up in it! Sigh. I'm not gonna be putting in that kind of time on knitting anytime soon (love cross stitch too much!) But I'd love to be able to knit some socks sometime! :DBerithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02270446862298837353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29775806.post-81178432285648077762010-03-24T17:26:56.535+00:002010-03-24T17:26:56.535+00:00Hi, Hazel!

What wonderful imagery and so fantastic that she could express it.<br />Your stitching is awesome, as always. Don't know how you manage to do it.<br />I'm wondering if your virus screens are a bit stringent and that's why you have a difficult time getting through to everyone's blogs or comments. You might take down something or you may have a redundancy.<br />HugsDebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10318926277089882125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29775806.post-22577730649490995042010-03-24T16:35:22.186+00:002010-03-24T16:35:22.186+00:00Netherfield Park came out great.

I don't blame you for wanting to keep it. :) And your knittinf is beautiful too.<br /><br />Now on to Lily's poem. She's how old? Wow. It is awesome.
