Almost as much as I enjoy looking at embroidery, I enjoy images of people embroidering. It's such a graceful and peaceful-looking gesture...
Are you feeling that, too? Mmhm. Can't wait until work is over, can find a quiet moment to yourself, no disturbances...

Thanx for sharing!! It’s absolutely true that I can’t wait to find time to work on my embroidery as soon as I get home. Listening to audio books (I even multitask when relaxing)!!
