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!

Home!

Good news!... Fred came home from hospital TODAY!  Yes, I know!!  pretty quick.  He's sort of okay - has the good painkillers to take and is doing all the right things....   has been for plenty of walks around our verandah and is doing his deep breathing exercises.

I can't believe he's actually home.  So now we begin the next phase.... recovery and then chemo.

    It seems we can always handle things better when the patient is home. So glad to hear that.
