Welcome to my blog. It's always great reading other people's blogs-looks great fun to do. So, now I've got some time to indulge myself in patchwork and quilting, I thought I'd have a go. So looking forward to meeting new friends and sharing the passion.

About Me

My photo
Following a lifetime spent in teaching, I'm now enjoying the luxury of having time to indulge in a wonderful hobby. I also now have time to visit my son, his wife and baby in US. Time too, for seeing my other son frequently. Keith, my husband is often drystone walling and climbing...so a girl's got to find something to do. Great news, awaiting the birth of twin grand-daughters in early October 2011...more quilts needed! Ireally welcome welcome your comments and interest in my blog. Thank you. P.S. I'm the one on the right!

Exhausted, but Home!


Now safely home from the Festival of Quilts where Judith and I had two wonderful days-the highlight for us was the purchase of two new sewing machines! Judith was in a state of shock for the rest of the day! Sylvia did a wonderful job demonstrating these all singing and dancing machines. We are now really excited and waiting for the courier to deliver them in a couple of days.
