A long long Journey

My husband and I went for a short trip to Brussels in Belgium and had a wonderful stay there.
We planned to fly back home to Denmark on Thursday last week but because of the vulcano ash from Iceland spreading all over the northern part of Europe a flight time of 1 hour 35 min transformed into a 3 days train journey with so many problems that I think I could write a book about it.
We are safe back home and I am on the right track again bound for stitching.
It is so wonderful to see all the stitcheries and blocks so many of you have made the last 10 days and imagine how I will enjoy sitting with my block A again.

One hour 35 minutes from one country to another . How lucky you are living on the other side of the world, distance may be part of our life's journey, but staying in touch and doing the same creative work joins us together.
