Well, my time in the Fabulous Florida Keys is winding down now, the days are getting hotter and the last of my guests have gone. It is always a bittersweet time, having to say goodbye to friends but looking forward to being in my beloved Maine. I am grateful every single day for my life and seriously, who wouldn't be?

 Lucky me, my parents were here for two-and-a-half months. It was wonderful. Here they are on their way back to Michigan. I was telling my friends the other day, that in the over a decade I've lived here, I have only driven to the Miami airport three times. And, all three times were in the last couple of weeks!  haha I've come a long way, baby!

So, with my party and my visitors, all happy distractions, I haven't had time to sew in weeks. I was able to get back to my sewing machine yesterday. So happy to be sewing along with Miss Elna again. I had missed her! Here is a little shopping bag I made for a friend's mother. Here is what it folds up into and . . . 

Here it is unfolded! Ta da!

And, this is a little laptop case I whipped up. Oh, how I love me some Kaffe!  Definitely got my sewing fix for the day.

So, I'm off for a little tai chi and a swim. Toodles for now.
