Playing the violin, poetry reading and favorite books and any other arty things that I discover along the way.
Probably other parts of my life will creep in too....family, grandchildren, food and recipes and gardening. Of course the former things are only what I fit in when I'm not directly involved in the latter.... ( yeh, right....I can hear my children all saying) .
I plan to enjoy it all and I hope you will too.
This is my very first quilt...Grandmother's Flower Garden.
I started it in the early nineties and now have now resurrected it to finish for a very special relative in England. I am handquilting and am halfway through...a lovely way to spend these spring evenings.

nice quilt - this is a pattern that has been in my mind a lot lately - quite fancy doing something with hexagons, and maybe by hand. Good luck with the blog, hope you enjoy it! Cx

I'm working on a grandmother's flower garden,too - and am knitting socks right now. Am in Canada, so don't have the wonderful wool tradition that you bring to your post...
Happy stitching!
