Hi Vreni, good to hear from you. Good luck with the unpacking & settling into your new home. x

Moving is no fun! The unpacking never seems to end but it will all be worth it!

craftyccain said...

We moved across country a couple of times, but never out of country! I can't imagine what you are going through. But we do what we gotta do. :)
Your quilts are fabulous!

Moving is all consuming isn't it? Last September I moved from Florida to Texas. And this September I am moving from Texas to Washington state...sigh.

Those are some nice subtle fabrics. Happy unpacking!

Lisa said...

Beautiful fabrics. I'm glad to have found your blog! Any move after 30 years is going to be difficult, and moving from such a far away place certainly adds to it! Good luck with your unpacking and hope to read more posts soon!

Oh, we moved a year ago and it was only about an hour from our last place and it was awful. I can't imagine how stressful it must be to do what you are doing. All that and still time to host a giveaway! Thanks for the chance! monique.belmer at gmail dot com

Unpacking is such a long task! Your fabric is lovely.

Jessica said...

I hate moving. I know in about two years we will be moving, and I am already dreading it. The older you get the more stuff you get. It is hard to believe the stuff that piles up in your house that you don't even think about being there. powersjlc (at) gmail (dot) com . Thank you for the chance and I hope you a speedy unpacking of your home.

Oh, I know how painful unpacking can be! Shhh... I still have boxes that have been packed for 4 years in my attic. I know I should chuck them, but...I just can't without looking in first... and frankly I'm afraid of what I might find! Good luck! Sarah: crjandsbj(at)netzero(dot)com

Hope moving goes well for you and you are unpacked and happily stitching again soon.
If you are still packing I suggest packing a small bag of hand stitching or embroidery which you can easily access and work on to keep calm and sanity as you unpack at the other end.
