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!

IN A WORD....... OR TWO!

Everyone in blogland seems to be unhappy with the new TWO WORD VERIFICATION system that blogger has introduced.

I have left a few comments in the last 24 hours and I didn't have any trouble "getting it right".  If you can't understand the two words, you just have to click on the "REFRESH" icon (the circle arrow) and another two words will pop up.

Reading so many blogs who were really quite upset about this, I decided to disable the word verification and enable the comment moderation.  Well, I'm sorry.... but I have had so many SPAM comments since doing this that I've changed my settings yet again.  I'm trying REGISTERED USERS allowed to comment but without the comment moderation as that also drives you crazy!  So, if you are ANONYMOUS you won't be able to leave a comment.  If I continue to get lots of SPAM, I will change back to enabled WORD VERIFICATION.

So, if you are trying to leave a comment and find you are unable to, please let me know via email as I do want to get this right.

I've been sewing today and working on the applique project for the Tuesday Craft Group I belong to.  I'll take some photos on Tuesday to show you what we are making,

Happy Sewing!!
