Hi, congratulations on your new job!

Enjoy your cruise and sharing your knowledge and skill. Enjoy that freedom.

Get back and get back on that rollercoaster we call life!

Most of all enjoy being part of a new work team and enjoy the worry free element of working again.

Hopefully, not working in embroidery and producing embroidery for work, will free up your enthusiasm and make embroidery your creative outlet once more.

Thank you so much, Suzanne! Oh yes I hope so - I think I've just really felt the pressure with trying to make money from it, certainly in the last 12 months but probably longer. I'm hoping to get back into it after a break, maybe the cruise will reignite it! Thanks so much for your lovely message 😊
