not a jetlag!

We are home from our wonderful vacation for over a week now and still I can't get myself behind this computer to blog. We had a super time! lovely sunny weather, beautiful surroundings and we spend a lot of time with family.
The nine-patch quilt was finished and delivered.

And I saw beautiful objects through my camera lens.

This vase with colorful crocheted flowers...just love it! Wish I had a pattern of those..( + wish I knew how to crocket!)
I took this photo at the Robert Brady museum.

And now back in daily life...I've a lot of catching up to do on reading all of your blogs plus I have to find some inspiration somewhere to get my crafty motor running again! Hope to see you again soon!

    LOL Corry - DO NOT learn to crochet! You will never have any time on your hands ever again. Only joking, I absolutely love it and it has only taken me 48 years to teach myself. Don't worry about blogging - we know you are around.

    Hi Corry.. welcome back! I really do know what you mean.. it is so hard to get back in the mood to blog when you get out of it. But I loved your pictures of everything your camera saw!
    Maybe you should take up crocheting.. it might give you some new inspiration.
