I ran across this a while back - probably not what you have in mind, but I'm curious.

Does anybody know how to do this?? I’ve decided; I’m going to learn.?

There is a sharp needle with a tiny latch hook on the other end that some use for reweaving.?

Any ideas where to buy one?

?Well, we finally have a contract on the home we wanted that had the driveway/easement issue.

The property owner of the easement hates the current owner of this house so much that he will not discuss the continued use of the easement.

So…….we are just putting in a new driveway (paid out of sellers proceeds at closing.) It’s idiotic but while we are having the drive put in, we may just have the same excavation company dig a pond for us! The landscape is perfect for it. (Huge dip in the front yard)

It’s taken months to get here, but I told my realtor that I’m like that dog playing with a rope toy…….you can pull it, shake it up and down and side to side…….I am NOT letting go. ?

I started watching this property last spring. It was Pending then to another buyer. Didn’t sell because of easement issue. BWUHAHAHA. Until we sign the papers, though, I’m still that dog!

The market here is totally insane and because of this easement issue, we got a very good deal. 7 acres in the country—only 6 minutes from my mother and 10 minutes from my daughter and grandson. It’s 2750 sq ft plus a huge unfinished walk-out basement AND there is a huge outbuilding (36x50)for DH’s toys. It’s a lot smaller than our current home but it doesn’t feel like it. Should be closing the first week of December!

I’m going to pare down the sewing machine collection over the next few months. Send vibes of energy and strength. Lol. I’m gonna need it. ?

Dear Clem,

I'm so sorry to hear this. I was wondering how she was doing just a few weeks ago. I have fond memories of sharing a room with her at a Madrona retreat a number of years ago and still have a coffee cozy she made for me then. Please accept my condolences on your loss. She was a valued and loved member of this group.

Hi Jaya,

I heard Ann mention your name many times over the years and thought that I would send word that Ann lost her fight with multiple myeloma and died on October 6th this year.? We had been married for 54? years; I and the rest of Ann's family miss her terribly.
