Hello!

At the turn of the year I had anticipated a break in blogging but not for the reasons that have been, nor for so long.  Turns out much more than plans were interrupted, as life for everyone nationwide and across the globe became unrecognisable virtually overnight.  This hasn't been a time I have enjoyed, nor a time of peaceful contemplation and rest from what once was our normal, but we are safe and well and for that I am grateful.  I truly hope that whatever the Covid-19 pandemic and its restrictions have meant for you, that you too are safe and well at this time.

During the early spring we expected to be moving house.  It was to have been quite a change for us, but along came Coronavirus and its impacts and for all sorts of reasons the house move fell through.  Since 25% of my household contents and all of my sewing supplies were, and still are, boxed up and ready to load on a van, stitching has had its limitations and challenges over the past four months.  But, for sanity I found ways and means.  I've tried some new things, some unexpected things and more recently, have delved into some of the boxes to retrieve a few more supplies and existing projects to work on.  Albeit a little late and out of sequence, I hope to share my Lockdown stitching here in my little blog space over time.  Unexpected as it has been, it is all part of the Sew Me stitchy story, and some of it has been really fun and most of it has been invaluably therapeutic!

Back soon with some pretty pics to share.
