Heading to Facebook

I won't be able to manage the blog. I only have a IPAD 2, and I downloaded the Blogger App. I could manage to write a post with no problem, but when I downloaded pics, they came out too large . It wouldn't even allow me to scroll down the page that far.On the IPAd, I had no way to minimise the pictures.When we went to Dingle to a larger computer at an Internet cafe, at the top of the page, it gave me the option to make the pictures small, medium, etc. That was not showing up on the IPAD. I can't keep on going to Dingle to post a blog.

I will be heading to Facebook. I will post there regularly now, as I do want to keep in touch with family and friends.
I am taking a flight this summer to the UK for a Saori Workshop for a week. I will post pics of my work and everything that happens there on Facebook. I will talk about my weaving and quilting on Facebook or just drop in to chit chat.A few people have written me that they are on Facebook mostly, and it looks like I will have to do the same.

See you on Facebook, and I will visit you too.❤️

Back to Blogging

 I am back to blogging. I have had a trying time with an accident last year and recently with cancer surgery, but I am lucky to be in tip top shape now. My niece Marla, who is an avid Facebook fan told me the best way to communicate with her is through Facebook, so I began to write in Facebook again, and realized how much I missed it. In addition, I sorely missed my blogging,so hopefully, you will welcome me back.

To get you caught up a bit with my life here in Ireland....Joe and I moved to The Dingle Peninsula in County Kerry, Ireland. Joe's mom was born in County Kerry, and I read a book called
The House on the Irish Hillside by Felicity Hayes-McCoy telling about how a couple fell in love with the Dingle Peninsula, found a cottage to renovate, and ultimately found true happiness. Well, you can guess what happened next. I had to go see it for myself, and I stayed at The Anchor Inn.

I explored the area and found us a beautiful house in Ballinclare, and we moved there.

Our home is in a beautiful valley, and the views are incredible.

Here is our house and some of the glorious views:

This is the road from our home, and the walking club taking a hike.

As you can see, it is a lovely farming community. 

Our favourite hangout is The South Pole Pub, which is on the Main Street near the Annascaul River. It's a great place to have a meal or listen to a music session.

As for family news,I am now a great aunt to my niece's beautiful baby girl named Maya.

I will be making a quilt for Maya, and asked for help on Facebook as to which pattern I should use. All voted, and this one won:

I am ordering the fabric this week, and I will start sewing the quilt next week. I will show you the quilt top when I sew it together.

I am glad to be back. I hope to share with you my quilting, and also my weaving. During my absence from blogging, I have gotten into weaving fabric.

Talk to you soon.
