"Brute force and Ignorance!" Someone needs to chart that! The phrase, "It takes a village" is often mocked. But I had tears watching all those people your daughter Charlotte has touched, and who have supported her along the way. Lovely village!

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Charlotte is very blessed , as are we, for the village that surrounds her Lisa. I could not do this alone, for sure.

@sewsweetsamuel4865 3 месяца назад

Oh what an amazing last day for Charlotte and you ❤❤. I hope your son’s graduation goes well as well. Gorgeous stitching as always. Your MAL with Jackie sounds interesting I’ve subscribed to cotton and twine subscription boxes while watching you tonight 😂😂. Thanks for all the inspiration again, Happy stitching. Love from Lindsey @sewsweetsamuel xx

@sewmesarah 3 месяца назад

Lovely to hear from you Lindsey. I subscribed to the Cotton and Twine boxes for a year and loved every one of them. I only stopped because I still haven’t stitched them all. Rabbit holes and all that distraction 😉 I miss those gorgeous boxes coming regularly though. Hope you really enjoy yours. Their next August design is so lovely!

@kathleenstroddentrail2798 3 месяца назад

Spending my wee hours with you my friend. Charlotte’s send off from school just had me in tears. So very sweet. And what great news that you have a new school for her! ❤. All of your stitching is just beautiful. There’s nothing I don’t love and don’t want to start! Trying to be strong. 😂. I will be starting Adore Him with you because I need to get a start on this year’s ornaments! As always, thank you for the inspiration. xoxo 😘. PS…..I grew up not far from Red Rocks Amphitheater. I saw the likes of James Taylor and The Nylons there. Wonderful, beautiful place.

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Hello my lovely, Yes, there has been much blubbing this past few weeks. All endings and new beginnings and it’s a little bittersweet, but ultimately good. Our trip for the graduation was perfect. I think you would have enjoyed seeing Durham, the small city Andrew went to university in. He was able to graduate from the medieval cathedral and have a champagne reception at the castle. All very lovely.

@annemarie6962 3 месяца назад

What a lovely tribute for Charlotte by the school. I hope she will settle into her new school in September. Congratulations to your son on his graduation & I hope he is enjoying his new job. Safe travels this week. Love all your stitching as always. I love the idea of the winter start for the Barbara Anna girls with Jackie & yourself. Her meditation is so calming. I loved watching Sally @flossysewsandgrows stitching hers so that'll be something to look forward to. It'll be my first Barbara Anna. I've just started 324 by Works by ABC after spending a couple of days finally sorting out all my DMC's. I'm still missing two threads but that's not bad 😂😂😂 It's actually an easy stitch & I'm just pulling 18 colours at a time to do so it doesn't feel overwhelming. Take care, best wishes from 🇮🇪

@sewmesarah 3 месяца назад

I’m impressed that you just had two missing threads from the 324! I like your idea of only pulling a selection at a time. Good for sanity that. Thanks for your wishes for Charlotte, we are relieved it has been sorted. Andrew starts his job in August so he’s got a bit of time to get his life organised and fulfil a few trombone playing commitments before then. Blessings to you for the month ahead.😘

@rebeccajourney3183 3 месяца назад

I am so pleased to see that Charlotte had a good ending at school❤ How wonderful❤ What a find, your needlepoint! A pillow or framed would both be nice choices!! I just found a bit of my Mom's cleaning closets. Two mushroom pieces in wool. I'm afraid the moths got at them...unfinished so perhaps repairable!?!

@sewmesarah 3 месяца назад

Oh you should try to repair and finish your mum’s pieces if you can Rebecca. How lovely it would be to have something you have both worked on!

@kathy1896 3 месяца назад

So many wonderful projects! I am still slowly stitching along on "All things grow with love", so definitely can't start any new SALs ... no wait, I did start the Arctic Animals SAL...but no new starts until at least tomorrow! LOL 😉

@sewmesarah 3 месяца назад

🤣🤣🤣so true Kathy. Enjoy all the SALs and starts!

@angelchadwell6656 3 месяца назад

That was very nice for Charlotte’s last day. I think that is great advice to end well when possible. Your WIPs look great! I hope you find some unanticipated stitchy time in the coming weeks! Take care!!

@sewmesarah 3 месяца назад

Thanks Angel. My friend was indeed very wise with her ending well advice. 😉

@jeanmansfield1138 3 месяца назад

We enjoyed watching Charlotte's end of school session and hope she copes well with the new school as you've tried so hard to find the right one for her and well done as so few places are available. Andrew's Graduation will be another memorable day so enjoy every moment. So good you know his near future is settled and where he'll be working 😊. I've injured a finger on my right hand so I've to wear a splint for several weeks so struggling to stitch as I'd my Vertigo-type problem all last week and couldn't concentrate. I'm having to be a monogamous stitcher as I'd only just begun a 50th WA Sampler and it's proving difficult despite looking simple! Lots of backstitching to cover lack of half stitches as I'm doing it for once on the Aida in the kit - which is as well as I can more easily work with my left hand. Thus plans and finishes have taken a back seat. Definitely not adding to the Starts/WIPs but will one day finish this to be framed.😊

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

I’m so sorry you’ve injured your finger Jean. That must be really frustrating for you. You’re doing well to stitch with your left hand. Not sure I could, though desperation might persuade me if I were in your shoes. We are relieved to have a place at a good learning support class for Charlotte. I never know if we’re making the right choices but I do hope so. Andrew’s graduation was a wonderful day and I’m so glad that we got to share it with him. Next week he moves to Malvern to settle into his house share and he has a couple of weeks to explore the area before he starts work at the beginning of August. Big changes!

@kathydeel4780 3 месяца назад

Hi Sarah, how are you? Your stitching is beautiful. 👏🌟👏🌟👏 In the video when you were saying how you were going to turn your son room into a "craft room", you mentioned it was because he wouldn't be coming home all the time. While that is upsetting because you won't get to see him as much as you want to, I think it means you did your job well. For that I applaud you. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 You taught him how to "fly" on his own, and he is showing you he can do it. Well Done. Happy Stitching. ❤❤❤

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Aw thank you Kathy. It’s a bittersweet time but I think it’s all just as it should be, and he is definitely ready to take another step towards being independent. We’re very proud of him ( and us).

@sew_stitch_sewnat9548 3 месяца назад

Congratulations on getting Charlotte’s school sorted and I’m sure Andrew’s graduation will be enjoyable and emotional. I just started the North America Sal part 2. Loving the light Sal and had to force myself to put down to make way for Christmas in July. Oh stitch all the things quaker looks amazing.

@sewmesarah 3 месяца назад

Thanks Natalie. It is a relief to have a place sorted and I’m very pleased it is our school of choice for Charlotte. Light was so hard to put away, but there are so many fun new starts ahead too. Enjoy your Jolly July stitches.

@elizabethbryan9475 3 месяца назад

Greetings from New Zealand. As always another fabulous video. All your projects are really lovely. Oh, wha5 a lovely send off for Charlotte. Hope she settles into her new school happily

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Thank you so much Elizabeth. We have a little bit of time to hopefully allow C to adjust to the idea of the new school but I don’t think it will be real for any of us until it’s actually happening.

@thehappystitcher1883 3 месяца назад

Aww what a week for you and Charlotte, it was so lovely that they gave her a guard of honour, just show how much she and you are thought of, I’m not surprised you are squeezing the Barbara Ana in right at then end I love her charts, maybe just maybe I’ll join you. Have a fabulous week.

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Thank you. I do hope we can persuade you to join us for the Four Seasons SAL. Honestly, it will be great 😉

@KellyGreen-io8js 3 месяца назад

Happy to see Charlotte will be in a new school soon. Another lovely video. Enjoy your time with your son and hopefully July will give you some much needed relaxing stitch time😊

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Thank you so much Kelly.

@MultipleLanesCreativeBrain 3 месяца назад

Hello Sarah, really enjoyed your update video. Especially the part with Charlotte ❤ just warms my heart to hear of her class mates kindness. I love your projects and upcoming starts. Oh my I just keep seeing more to add to my list lol. I've purchased several more this past week lol. Your genuine kindness and positive energy comes forth in your videos and I really enjoy watching. Thanks and do enjoy your sons graduation! Congratulations to him and his new job too. Take care.🌞

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Thank you for your sweet comment. Apologies (sort of) for the enabling, but it’s kind of fun really 😉

@noreenkennedy5381 3 месяца назад

Sarah, not a dry eye in the house watching the kindness shown to Charlotte on her last day..as you say a beautiful ending. All the best with the graduation and a new start for Andrew. Great floss tube.. beautiful starts/charts/new shop. I have a Tillyanna bag and love it 😊

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Yes, Stephanie sent me down the tillyanna rabbit hole. I bought some lovely ones f9r gifts and decided it was time to have my own now. 😉

@vickien4524 3 месяца назад

Lots of emotional endings for you much to close together. My kids college graduations were so sad for me because it meant they were moving on with their lives. Your son is off on a great adventure and you did a good job. So happy for all the classmate kindness for Charlotte.

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Yes, Vickie it’s a really bittersweet time. Endings and the excitement of new beginnings. It was hard to leave my son after graduation knowing that he really is only coming home for visits infrequently now. All as it should be, but still a bit of a lurch for a mama’s heart😊

@ChrisJones-cq7sy 3 месяца назад

Love your videos my first sal started the light whilst watching you monday morning thankyou ❤

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Thank you so much for joining us for Light as your very first SAL. I hope you are having fun working on her!

@kimcolangelo5551 3 месяца назад

Your projects were beautiful . I’m so glad that charlotte had such a special last day of school. Have fun at your sons graduation . I would like to know the name of your scroll frame and do you use it on a ffloor stand

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Hi Kim, thanks for your kind wishes. The graduation was wonderful. The scroll frames are Elbesee Easy Clip frames. Occasionally I use them with a Lowery Stand but mostly I just hold them, although I do tend to support them on a pillow on my lap or on a table at one side of the frame to take some of the weight out of my hands.

@thefaithfulsheepcrafts4021 3 месяца назад

Just found you this morning after my first morning off in months . Really enjoyed seeing all your projects . What a special send off the school gave your Charlotte . As a mum of a now adult son with additional needs it made me very emotional x

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Thank you so much! It’s lovely to have you join me. It was a hugely emotional week saying goodbye, and not knowing that C really understands, but we are so very grateful for everything that the school and her wee friends have done for her during her time there. They have all been part of the huge village it is taking to raise her.

@joannesmith719 3 месяца назад

Oh my, what an emotional time you've had with Charlotte's last day at her old school. Not only will you never forget it, but the staff and children at school will never forget the amazing impact Charlotte has had on their lives and the school. I'm sure she will soon settle in her new school and make a super impact there too. Thank you for sharing this experience with us.

@sewmesarah 3 месяца назад

It was uber emotional last week. I was a soggy mummy mess 😂 All signs that she and we have been blessed by such a great school experience. On to the next stage now. Thanks Joanne.

@maryavaux2038 3 месяца назад

Thank you for sharing your story about Charlotte’s last day at her current school. You have so many good things going on right now, some of them appear to be hard to go through, you are a strong person. So happy you have your cross stitch to give you some stress free time for yourself. I enjoyed seeing your projects. Happy stitching.

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Thank you Mary. There does seem to be a lot of change happening at once, and I’m not the world’s biggest fan of change 😉 Bittersweet as some of it is, it’s all as it should be really and hopefully the new beginnings that come will be great experiences for Andrew and for Charlotte.

@flossabilities 3 месяца назад

Just a fabulous video all round as usual! So glad you like the pillow! Thank you so much for the shout out! 💗🧵⚓️

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Always my pleasure, sweet Lauren!

@joanneneufeld8212 3 месяца назад

I love what the school did for Charlotte. That is so sweet. I am crossing my fingers that the transition to the new school goes smoothly. Nice updates on your projects and The Light is coming along nicely. I just downloaded the pattern and hope to start it in August or September.

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Thanks Joanne. I really hope you will enjoy Light. I can’t wait to find some time to pick it up again. I’m afraid my full coverage has fallen dramatically by the wayside as I start all the things for this big year. How have you been doing with yours?

@joanneneufeld8212 2 месяца назад

My full coverage has been put on hold till I get an iPad for markup R-XP and the monthly Barn series from TPP are taking up a lot of time and since you are doing the 50 starts this year I figured it would keep till next year to really get work done it.

@cotterillfamily7355 29 дней назад

Fortnight seems to be a commonwealth term lol - loved seeing the “Celebration of Charlotte” super cute! - take care, Nic x

@ryoungdesigner4340 3 месяца назад

I enjoy your floss tube so much. Love hearing about your sweet daughter and pray all goes well with her new school. Prayers for you and your husband as well. Change can be a challenge sometimes. Your stitching is beautiful as always and I think you accomplished a lot!!!

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Yes, I’m not great at change, but it is an essential part of life and growth. So, here’s hoping this change will continue to be a positive experience. Thanks for your kind words.

@susanradford9503 3 месяца назад

So pleased that Charlotte has got a place at her next school. Very emotional time and I was crying watching her last day. What an impact she has made and I hope she will settle well as she goes forward. I loved stitching on Light but have had to put it down to start all my July plans! Thanks for sharing everything. Happy stitching and see you in a ‘fortnight!’ x

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Thank you Sue. School made her last few days very special and yes, it’s been a very emotional time. Light is calling me, but I have more starts to do 😉 Glad you enjoyed your start on it too.

@stitchysally 2 месяца назад

What a wonderful send off for Charlotte. Thank you so much for sharing it. You have been doing some lovely stitching and doing so well with your starts for your 50th. Happy stitching 😊

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Thank you Sally.

@SarahsStitchySpot 2 месяца назад

I must congratulate Andrew again for his academic accomplishment. How marvelous that Charlotte had a proper send off to her next journey. I feel sure your emotions ran the gamut over the past several weeks. I must say I find that you are handling your 50 birthday starts with grace and enjoyment. It is wonderful to celebrate with you. I appreciate the mention for the Zoom stitching, very kind of you. I know we will have some time together as well. Thank you for sharing and just being the loveliness that is you. ❤❤

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Aw thanks Sarah. Yes, emotions all over the place lately. Lots of change but it’s all good really.

@darlenedeondesigns2844 3 месяца назад

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Thanks Darlene and you are very welcome for the shout out, it’s a very sweet pattern.

@flossysewsandgrows 3 месяца назад

What a huge relief that Charlotte has a place for September and you can relax. I had a few tears watching her guard of honour so I bet you had more than a few! Wonderful to see all your projects and progress. I hope with Charlotte being sorted out now you can have a wonderful few days away celebrating Andrew's graduation! Big hugs all round x

@sewmesarah 3 месяца назад

Thank you Sally. Yes, it is a relief that she has a new placement and it is the school we wanted for her. There were lots of tears all week long. A good but very emotional ending. Heading off to Durham today for tomorrow’s graduation. Looking forward to it!

@donnamccaffrey4364 3 месяца назад

Thank you for sharing Charlotte’s end of term, leaving school celebration it was so lovely to watch. Happy stitching you have so many beautiful WIPs.

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Thank you Donna.

@HobbiesAndHyperfocus 2 месяца назад

I also turned 50 this year (in April)... I decided to BUY 50 patterns over this year (I am still ramping up WIPs as this is only year 2 as a non-monogamous stitcher)... so I am watching along as you start all 50!

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Ooh, I never thought of buying 50 patterns in celebration of the big year. I hope you are enjoying making your choices!

@angiefittro8372 3 месяца назад

Your peacock re-start is looking so good! I am doing Yasmin’s peacock entitled The Uniqueness of Others. Sallie and I (August 1823 Stitchers) are starting the Caterpillar SAL entitled Enchanted Realms on our flossiversary (July 24) and stitching one motif a day during the Olympics. Are you planning on any Christmas in July projects? We are, including Hanukkah, lol. Congratulations on having a son who has earned his spot in graduation! Prayers for patience with Charlotte and with yourself!

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

That’s such a great idea for Olympic stitching Angie. I hope you and Sally will enjoy enchanted realms. I have a few Christmas starts planned for this month - the Plum Street free pattern Adore Him, My Christmas List, a kit project called The Dearest for You and a Barbara Ana small stitch called Christmas Ride. I love stitching Christmas in July. I would love to work a little more on these ones and on my existing Christmas WIPs but this year is about all the starts, so they’ll get started and maybe I’ll get the smaller ones finished. Have fun with your Christmas and Hanukkah stitches!

@cakesandstitches 2 месяца назад

What a lovely, relaxing start to my day catching up with you and your projects. Rejoice Evermore is looking fabulous and I can't believe how much you got done on Light already. I'm loving working on Light too - it's a really engaging stitch isn't it?

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Yes, Light is great to work on. It’s the hardest part of a 50 start challenge is that you have to move on to the next start pretty quickly, but at least it will be waiting for me and I know how lovely it is.

@kerripark2312 3 месяца назад

Wow, Sarah, so much going on for you! Big adventures ahead for Charlotte and Andrew. It was lovely to see Charlotte’s send off and I’m sure she’ll be as valued in her new school. Thank goodness for stitching, eh? Our therapy ❤. Have a lovely time at Andrew’s graduation and remember to pat yourselves on the back amongst all that pride you’ll be feeling 👏🏻xx

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Oh yes, it’s all happening here! Big life events but all good really. The graduation was wonderful and we had a very special day celebrating our boy. Thanks Kerri.

@audreymcdevitt9611 3 месяца назад

Oh Sarah i got so emotional thinking about the time that your family & Charlotte have been going through recently. I hope you all continue to have the positive experience that has started. My heart is full of good wishes & joy for Charlotte's & your familys future ❤️❤️❤️❤️ hugs to you all 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗xx Also I am going to join you when you begin the seasonal ladies in December too. Take care of yourself xxx

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Yes, there sure is a lot going on here. Lots of big changes and big emotions, but so far all good really. I’m so glad you’ll be joining us for the Four Seasons ladies SAL. I’m so looking forward to it.

@taraward3167 3 месяца назад

Sarah, lovely projects and I really enjoyed Charlotte’s send off video!❤ Question-when you stitch with the scroll frame you have What Makes You Happy on, do you attach it to a stand? Or do you hold it and stitch with one hand? Or do you sort of prop it somehow and stitch with two hands? I’m very curious. Thanks!

@sewmesarah 3 месяца назад

Hi Tara. I do a mixture of things when I stitch on a scroll frame. I have a little demonstration in video 43 about 11 or 12 mins in if you’d like to see how I do it. I’m no expert but have found a way that works for me. Hope it helps.

@theresapetrik1995 3 месяца назад

What a wonderful send-off for Charlotte both by the entire school and especially by her classmates! Hope Andrew's proves to be the same. This is a real transition time for your family. Don't forget to breathe along the way. So nice to see your progress on Light, I love Barbara Ana designs. Somehow, I have never seen the Seasons one...oh, how you enable me. Also, just recently discovered Flossabilities and they are on my next "to order" list. Hope you and your family have a wonderful July!

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Enabling, the bittersweet benefit of flosstube. I am enabled all the time Theresa😳 I hope you will maybe join us for the Four Seasons start if you buy the pattern 😉

@karenjones256 3 месяца назад

Hi Sarah! I’m a first time viewer from Maryland in the USA. I’ve heard Pam and Steph mention you several times, so when I saw a Flosstube pop up today, I thought I’d give it a try. Immediately upon its conclusion I subscribed! I was so touched for the outpouring of love for Charlotte, and hope she is welcomed into her new school with the same. I love all of your stitching projects and have written down a couple to get for myself…Stitch All the Things Quaker is a must, and I saw the Comfort Stitcher’s announcement about the Barbara Anna Seasons and was on the fence, but I think you’ve pushed me over! You have such a pleasant manner, and obvious good taste, so I’m off to watch some of your prior episodes! Thanks so much for sharing your time with us!

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Hello Karen! It’s so lovely to have you join us. Thank you for trying the channel and I’m so glad you enjoyed it enough to subscribe. At least if I have to feel guilty for enabling you, I can console myself that they were beautiful things I enabled you to get. Both of those are great choices. Maybe you’ll join Jackie and me for the Four Seasons Stitch Along staring in December? Charlotte’s school did a beautiful job of giving her a great last few days. They have been so supportive - staff and peers- and we couldn’t have asked for more. Thanks again Karen.

@judysigsworth8119 2 месяца назад

Another great video. Your clip at Charlotte's last day at school got tears to my eyes! Loved your saying, "brute force and ignorance". I think it fits my life quite well! And I remember the days of encyclopedias quite well, but unfortunately, we did not own a set. I had to find my way to the local library if I needed to look something up. Congratulations on not only getting Andrew through college to graduation, he's found himself a job so off your payroll and onto someone else's! Well done! Looking forward to your next video. Happy stitching.

@sewmesarah 2 месяца назад

Yes, the switching payroll is a silver lining😉 It is also fun to watch him start to build his adult life and make some big decisions. Bittersweet, just as it should be.

I agree with Lisa below...someone needs to chart that saying of your mom's! That's so right! Thank you for taking the time to share your stitching, opportunities to connect with others and the sweet moments with and for Charlotte. So sweet of the kids to honor and celebrate Charlotte on her last day and with all of those sweet cards. Lovely stitching, lovely video, as always! Thank you friend!

@kristinejellum6289 3 месяца назад

Sarah, thank you for sharing Charlotte’s special end of her time at this school. It looks like the staff and students celebrated Charlotte well! I know it is hard for her (and for you) to leave this known environment. I’m praying that her new school will be a wonderful next step in her life lessons. Congratulations on Andrew graduating and I hope you and the family have a wonderful time enjoying your time away. Kris

We had a perfect day at the graduation, Patricia. It was amazing to be there and celebrate with him.

@stephaniesnape6787 3 месяца назад

Dear Sarah, what a lovely ending to Charlotte’s time at her current school. I have a beautiful daughter with additional needs too - finding the right school is so stressful for parents - but look at how Charlotte thrived - that bodes really well for the next. And congratulations on your son’s graduation. I love Barbara Anna but haven’t stitch one of her designs yet - hopefully soon. Xx

Thank you so much Stephanie. Yes, I’m sure you understand completely the struggles over finding the right place for your daughter. I feel very under qualified to make the judgements sometimes about where will be best, but hey ho … Her first four years have been wonderful for her, I just hope the adjustment won’t be too difficult and really think she’ll be better supported for this next stage at the new place. Fingers crossed anyway 😉 Light has been my first Barbara Ana and I really love it. I hope you’ll find a Barbara Ana that you love too.

Thank you for telling me about the scroll frame you use. I received mine and I think I’m really going to enjoy it AND I got the wing nut tighter as well!

Hi Janie. I really hope you enjoy using the frame. The twizzler has been such a great little gadget.

Good morning Sarah I wept when I saw your video. Please know that we love you and your stitching but we also love anything that is part of your life. We love little miss Charlotte and I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say we would love to see more of her and what she is doing in school and at home. Most of us are moms and love rejoicing with you and Charlotte's every activity. My husband works with children like Charlotte and I know for a fact that change is very hard. So please know we will be praying that she has a smooth transition into her new school and she will be blessed with many many new friends. Her personality just draws love and fun. Just like her ma ma. Thank you for all you do for the community. Bring us more we love it all. Linda from Rhode Island

This is the sweetest comment Linda. Thank you. Yes, the change is going to be very hard. Unlike me, Charlotte is gregarious so she will make new friends well, but just the adjustments to her routine, a new school uniform, new travel, all those things will really throw her for a bit. We’re working on a plan of dip feeding positive vibes about the new place all summer. The hardest part is just that we know she really doesn’t understand it yet. Anyway, we’ll get there and your prayers are very much appreciated. Thank you.

Oh wow! Charlotte’s send off celebration was just delightful to watch, thank you for sharing that! And I am so down to do the winter solstice stitch as they are a pattern I have been drooling over!
