Overwhelmed

Well, I love showing people how to make "little books". Three-hole pamphlet stitch can be a revelation (and so easy once you know how) --- even for people who "don't sew".

And if anyone shows the least bit of interest in learning how to make a simple book, I'll drop everything to show them. It's a pleasure.

So, yesterday, in the course of events, I showed Glenda how to make a book with three-hole pamphlet stitch, and then got back to doing whatever...

Today, to my surprise and, well, stupefaction, I was presented with the second-ever book she made - which I will treasure - and some yummmmmmmy chocolates -It's made me think about two things: how we take "the things that come easily to us" for granted, and how we really do need to stop and say thank you to our friends more often.
