The kids were off school for half term and spent a couple of weeks in England with their father (from whom I'm divorced), so that's why I could go!

Oh I simply loved that trip to Holland with you, those quilts were awesome and I particularly liked the baafequilt. Those aprons were particularly touching.
You have come back full of enthusiasm, canīt wait to see what you make, cīmon hurry up.
