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!

WOOHOO!! MY TEDDY QUILT CAME SECOND!!!

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who voted for my Teddy Quilt!!!! Second Prize - a lovely fat quarter bundle of Christmas fabric. The Teddy Quilt contest was sponsored by the Fat Quarter Shop ...... you can see all the great new christmas fabric here.

This contest was such fun!! Thanks for all of your lovely comments on my Teddy Quilt!

Once the fabric has arrived, I'll make another bag for a Christmas give-a-way ... so stay tuned! I suppose the fabric should arrive here in Australia in a few weeks, just in time for Christmas!!
