LOL OK, that's what I was thinking too.....they're both over 70 now. Funny to hear that now.
Judith, I almost always order from Fabric Shack. Great fabrics and excellent customer service.

Woah Anael, I think this just became my new favorite online shopping store. I had no idea that it had such a selection. It will take me all day just to go through the categories. That's not even looking at fabric yet.
I am part of the Fabric Moratorium here on the board. I am so going to be in big trouble. It's okay to look right!? lol
Probably not, but, I'm going to look anyway. I can't get myself in any trouble for a few weeks anyway. It's still several weeks away till a payday for DH.

My fabric is still on it's way from the USA. Hasn't arrived in The Netherlands yet. Like I can't live without it LOL.
Did I tell you I'm going on a vacation, all by myself? For the first time!! Me, myself and I? Yes......leaving May 3rd and back May 10th. I'm staying in the country. If I really don't like it I can go home any time I want.
I already started gathering stuff hahaha! Like a new camera bag. The one I use almost every day is a shoulder bag, not suitable for walking. The other one I have (was given to me) is too heavy so now I have a new to me backpack in a decent size.
If I like going on my own I might plan another one in Autumn.

Absolutely nothing wrong with staying in country, Anael..we never see everything in our own backyards.
No school today...melting snow and rain has turned country roads to icy spots or mush depending where you are at. Was supposed to have a sew day with friends. Instead had a sew day with Grands. 10yo has four pillowcases rolls ready to sew cuff to body. Lots of cutting and pinning for her. 13yo has several pieces cut for her quilt. I like to starch and iron first so they spent quite a bit of time doing that before cutting. Hopefully will be sewing this weekend. Good thing I have 2 machines.

Well deserved vacation, my friend! I know you will have a wonderful time exploring and snapping pictures... We expect to see some in an album when you get back..
Enjoy the creative time with your grands, OK... No doubt, they will cherish the memories of your time together. So special!
