I miss the SOXS tourneys in Des Moines. We went every year that they were held. I do wish they would return but I know I am longing for what is now history.


I leave next Saturday for a cruise out of Southampton, England, (to Hamburg, Oslo, and Bruges) with a group of stitchers - led by Jean Farish, who founded the SOXS festival. I will be taking a class with Maureen Appleton of The Heart's Content; she's famous for over one projects. My 72 year old eyes will probably not be happy with me, but I did order some stronger readers. LOL

Have a wonderful time, they are currently having good weather over
there too.


I wished I could have joined you, I am waiting to see a specialist for
my eyes, having problems with close work. It is said that my eyelids are
drooping and obscuring my vision. Could be having plastic surgery on the
NHS.
