Oh Jenny! Ok, I will fill you in on something happy because I absolutely know where you are right now, having had this kind of a year last year.

Two weekends ago, we in Australia commemorated Anzac Day. It was in fact the centenary year. There were something like 90000 people rocking up to the dawn service at Kings park Perth! And then later that…[Read more]

Sarvi I think Donna may mean the inner most corners, aka the seam allowances.

Donna, i have just been going through the instructions (one handed I’m afraid as I have a baby with a cold that insists on being held). Gathering the info of what your dilemma is and comparing the photos (Thanks so much Brittney for helping upload these) to the pictures…[Read more]
