So sorry to hear your sad news, Lisa. On a brighter note, it's great that you have made a real life sewing friend who lives so close. I am quite envious.

Thank you so much Barbara! I very much hope so too! We have already been planning a couple of fabric shopping trips in the near future..... so really looking forward to 2018!! :)

So sorry you had trouble posting your comment! This blog is still powered by Blogger, so don't know if that was the issue or not.... but glad you prevailed! Thank you for your condolences about Towa. The house still seems quiet without her, but we all do enjoy Suzi. :)

Completely agree with what you say about IG and am thinking that may well be what I do in the future too. Sort of irregularly post and not feel self-pressured to do more. Trying to figure out how to manage my time better to complete more projects that I want to do. Thank you so much Sarah Liz! :)

Good to see you back, Lisa, though I'm sorry illness and sadness are the reasons you were quiet for awhile. I am pet-less by choice these days but have had to deal with the passing of fur friends in the past. It takes a while to process.

I'm glad you found a near by sewing friend. I know some near by sewists but haven't really clicked with any. Hope yours becomes a good buddy.

Firstly my commiserations on the loss of your little dog, it's such a tough time, but their memories live on, and I'm sure you gave her a wonderful life. I really enjoyed the roundup you have given us and so pleased you've found a new sewing friend - it is lovely to have people you can catch up with in person and chat about sewing and life! PS I've had a lot of trouble posting this comment, so I hope you get it.

While I love the connections I have made via social media, it is not the same as a relationship in the same time, place and space! And you will find you have many other things in common as well. Very pleased for you to have made this connection. And I am sorry to hear about Towa - yes, your daughter will be quite hard hit, as you rightly point out. As for IG, yes, one has to be in constant motion there - that is not quite me either! But people do come and go as well - I plan to be a bit more that way over the next year or so...some are very good at just posting what they want to post, and engaging in a less full on way.

2017-12-09T13:03:55.055-05:00

You are so right! My blog and IG friends mean the world to me, but I've always yearned for a sewing friend to sew together and enjoy fabric shopping together. Hopefully I'll enjoy a good balance of on-line/in-person friendships now. Thank you so much Jane! :)

Thank you so much Erin! :)

So very sorry to read the news about your dear fur friend. I hope happier memories are some comfort. And what a lovely experience to find a new sewing friend so nearby. Blog and IG friends are sweet but there's not much more fun than in person sewing friendships.

So sorry to hear about Towa. Glad that you found a...

I remember your sweet pup Dayna. It is hard, isn't it as they are such a part of the family. You are always so kind and thoughtful. IG was beginning to feel a little overwhelming, and I just really had no new, interesting content for the blog. But now all is good. Thank you ever so much!! :)

So sorry about the passing of your dog. This month marks one year since our beagle passed away. I know it is hard.
Glad you are back sewing!! So nice that you met a sewing neighbor. I was wondering how you were doing, but I never know if people are ok with others asking or if it is pushing into their personal business.Anyway, it is good to see you back on IG and your blog!!

Oh, I am sorry about Tova! I already had wondered what you were doing, Lisa! What a lovely and heart-warming tripod story! I have met some local sewing friends, all via internet. Sometimes we would meet for a little sewing bee, what is really fun. Happy sewing!
