You are probably wondering where I am since missing posting for several days in a row isn't like me. I've been sick, courtesy of a tick that latched onto my arm. I have a sore arm, inflammation around the bite site, and both nausea and fever. I haven't really felt like stitching and I have not felt up to posting, either. Putting two words together and then typing them has been beyond me. But I am better, courtesy of the antibiotics, and I'll learn Monday if the blood tests show anything that means I need more antibiotics. It's almost certainly a skin infection, courtesy of the sharp tick teeth, but the blood tests are to make sure.
While I curl up in the comfy chair with a good book, you might have fun reading a two-part interview Mary Corbet did with the fabulous Austrailian goldwork/stumpwork designer Alison Cole.

Orna Willis has redone her website. It is easier to navigate but each nook and cranny has lovely things to see and perhaps stitch.

Laura Perin has continued to post more great border ideas on her blog.
