Leaving for a few days

It's been a couple of days since I posted and, sad to say, a couple of days since I've stitched. We leave tomorrow morning for Virginia to visit my family. Normally we fly, but because mom wants to send some things back with us, we are driving.

I think just about everything is done and I do plan to take stitching with me. So I promise progress shots when I get home. (Super Bowl Sunday...Go Steelers :-)!)

In the meanwhile, I do have a great suggestion for any of you Bram Stoker fans (Dracula, Vampire legends, etc.) This book:

Is a FABULOUS read. Spooky...progressively more so with each chapter, but not loaded with graphic violence. And a very, very interesting premise. Unlike any version of 'Dracula' you've ever seen.

I know I've been tagged by Isabelle and I will try to get back before I leave to have a little fun with that. Thank you, Isabelle...for your lovely note and all of you for reading.

I wish everyone smoothe sailing and happy stitches.

Blessings,

Julie
