I love to sew, mainly quilts and bags. I am 66, married to Fred and have one son, Matthew, who is 27. I enjoy embroidery and applique and prefer to machine piece and quilt my projects. I love my vintage Singer sewing machines especially my Featherweight 222K. I’m enjoying treadling on my 201K Singer and I collect Miniature Sewing Machines and currently have three Essex , one Singer 20, one Singer 40, two Vulcan Miniatures and my latest, a Grain. My love of sewing I believe comes from my Grandmother - I still have the drawings she made for me to embroider on tea towels many many years ago!

THIS WOULD EXPLAIN IT!!!!!

Feeling yucky, off, unwell but not sick..... mmmmmmmm what could it be???

Well, now I know! I've just returned home from having my Gallbladder out! I went to the Doctor yesterday lunch time with terrible pain, off in the ambulance to our local Private Hospital --yes, I have cover:-) -- spent the afternoon in emergency, blood tests, scans... then saw the Specialist and he said.... "that's coming out NOW!!". So, had the op last night, spent the morning in hospital and came home at lunch time today! Not bad hey?? I'm feeling quite well now, it really is amazing!

So, sadly no sewing to report on and no photos either (now, really - I didn't have my camera at the hospital and you really didn't want to see a picture, did you?)

Thanks for the get well wishes last post, next post should, will and must have a finished beach quilt!!!!

Happy Sewing!!

Saturday afternoon..... just wanted to say Thank You to everyone for your get well messages and emails.... I'm feeling so much better, just a bit tender and sore, but that will pass. I'm itching to do some sewing, I guess I must be getting better!!!! But, I will resist that urge to sew and just stay in bed resting, blog surfing, reading and listening to my lovely music. I promise!
