My second love (my first love being my family… it’s a close thing) is fabric and quilting. I love it! From choosing the fabric, to planning and some times designing my own pattern, then onto cutting and piecing… all good! Recently I have leaned how to crochet, find the picking-up and putting-down ease perfect for those evenings when you want to do some thing but not sure if your full concentration is there, and the telly is on!
I am married to a great bloke (you would agree if you knew him) we have one daughter who is a live wire and keeps us on our toes, she is off to Uni next year so we are preparing for that…sob! As a family we have a mutual interest in travel, always like to have some thing on the drawing board, or penciled in, or better still flights booked!
I am really not sure how this blog of mine will pan out, I hope to keep it interesting, maybe a little weird at times, what I promise is that it will be totally me!

I really like the Tour de France blog and the yellow jumper is so cute. You really do have the most interesting things to say. Please keep it up, I am really looking forward to see what subject is next, no pressure! Maxie
Arrr… thanks for your visits, please come back and read what I am “chatting” about, you are more than welcome any time.
Best wishes, Jay x
Hi, I am looking for a Gutermann rayon embroidery thread color/number chart. I have searched and searched! Do you have any idea where to get one? I’d love to have one for the Sew All thread too but the embroidery is my main quest. Thanks! Linda
Hi there Linda,
I know ‘Hobbycraft’ have a wide range of Gutermann threads as I remember the last time I was in one of their stores… you could try them. Other wise have you tried an online source? Good luck TSW xx
