I would love to join a sewing group. I used to be in a furniture restoration group, we had a blast, scrubbing away with our steel wool.
Every now and then you would drop your steel wool in your wine instead of the metho.

@Rhythm, I probably just murdered your favourite dish. 🙂

I am slightly nervous to share our tea tonight as it is very much ‘nursery nourishment’ but my children love it, so I shall.

Curry in a hurry

Brown two large chopped onions in some oil, stirring occasionally.
Put water on to boil a dozen eggs. Hard boil, chill, peel and chop up, set aside.

I completely agree Sarvi.

I made a Ice Cream dress for Tildy, for Christmas, and I added length. I *almost* added too much and spoilt the line.
I definitely made the pockets too low.

I can sew, but pattern drafting is way way out of my league. I will leave that to Liesl.

A blazer, what a good idea 😉

I do a little embroidery, I am not very good but I muddle along. I used to smock but I went off that.

I love silk embroidery thread and I like to press my threads before stitching with them.

Jay, I hope you adjust soon. What an adventure.

Jenny, enjoy your sewing space. I hope young Missy (Gigi? love that name) likes her new room.

So true Sarvi. I have very easy pregnancies but PE at the end. Many woman and babies died from that. I am so grateful to be born in this era.

I am so grateful for my brood, my SIL has been on IVF for 17 years, she would give anything for a child.

@dubhels200, oh yes.

Yes please @Rhythm.

Wow, Jenny. I was in tears reading that.

I made Beatrix a sweet little baby bonnet from a free pattern from Purl Soho. One hour sewing and it is divine.

I think Sarvi was being kind.
