And the rose one is truly a work of art. All done by hand. Quilting is one craft I've never tried. But I do admire home made quilts and all the creativity and time that goes into them.

I have done a tiny bit of quilting but as Peggy says, there isn't much time for it these days. I forwarded on to a friend who does beautiful needlework -- and she forwarded it -- so quilters in PA are loving Paris Patch! They are so beautiful!

Its just that at this point in my life, there really isn't much time for it. I've got a half made baby quilt all ready to be completed as soon as one of my boys tells me that there is going to be a new baby in the family. I love making quilts.

My mother inherited her love of sewing. Tailoress is just not PC these days so I keep on being told. Loved the quilts, we have an exhibition once a year at Beamish Museum and the handsewn ones always draw the biggest crowds. And yes its me, I thought today was Wednesday!!!

Sometimes, all I do,in one day, is write my initials on the dust of the furniture. Of course I read, I listen to music, I think... Well, I think that I think... I looked at the three flickrs of Nonie Vogue. It's marvellous! I also love the Mussorgsky, and the show. Thank you!
