I was able to see your designs in person recently and I must say that the photos do not do them justice.

Just like a fine piece of art, these are beautiful.

These are so beautiful! I can see someone creating something this wonderful with just using the scraps we all have.

Your color choices are so dynamic.

Fantastic to know you can stitch on flights . Wish I'd known this a month ago tho. when i had a 7 hour flight to Saudi . First I'd ever made on my own. Next time won't be so bad with my trusty needle in my hand . It always takes my mind off my worries. Maldon mum

Thanks for that valuable information about traveling with needles. I love the fact that somethings are considered to be a wonderful and simple pasttime for us!

If you are traveling, please see my latest blog, it gives you information on finding a good seat on the airline you travel.

Best wishes to you and yours, Pat

I particularily like the middle cupcake in the bottom row. It looks like you may have done some quilting on that one!

This is great. I have read books on the Red Tea at Tea Time, I didn't know it was a daily part of life.

I really enjoyed the history lesson and the designs are wonderful

I just like tea cups and pots, have them all over the place.
