And only this weekend I was teaching my very trendy young niece (25) who lives in London to crochet a granny square - we have been talking via email ever since, I only wish that I was closer to her so that I could be on hand to help. I think that it is so important for older generations to pass on the handcraft skills, and I feel as if I am a link between my niece and her grandmother, who taught me. Thank you for the blog - I shall follow!

I'm working on all of this when the boys go back to school. I work so hard on improving the lives of my family that I do very little to improve my own life. I'm sure the happier I am, the happier they will be, too. Thanks for sharing, Liz.The Cherry On Tophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06029609538343991990noreply@blogger.com
