Gosh that was an experience with starting from a block of land to where you ended up. And all that moving with two young children! Love your tapestries/cross-stitch. I did tapestries for 10 dining chairs (which have now been re-covered) 5 cushions and two footstools. A marathon effort. And I’m glad you kept at least one piece of decoupage. I have a small piece that I did at a class many years ago. I cut, cut, cut… bought special scissors, then found my hands weren’t being forgiving with cutting so it was all given away. Such a great and relaxing thing to do though. I think we will all miss reading about your life, but it was all about telling up to a certain time, so will look forward to next week. When I wrote my life story, aptly sub-titled “Before I forget!” I finished it when our last grandchild was born nearly 12 years ago. I figured my family know everything about my life now without me writing about it.
What can't you do? I bet it's a very short list. I will be sad when the story ends.
The tapestries are beautiful! Between that and the decoupage, you clearly have a good eye for artistry.

I am sorry the story will end soon; I am enjoying it immensely. Thank you!
Wow! This ran through my mind like a movie. Loved the simplicity in telling your story.
I have loved your stories and I hope you don't stop writing even once your 100 objects are complete!
