I went to the Malvern Quilt Show on Friday, lots of fantastic and skilled stitching on display made me want to cry thinking about my lack of skill! I managed to console myself with a bit of retail therapy though and treated myself to this batch of lovely threads.
Now for the bad news, and I'm afraid it is BAD. My sewing machine Jemimah has stopped working :( I was merrily stitching away yesterday and the power just went. I've tried the basics, changing the fuse etc but she just won't fire up. The really bad news is there aren't many repair shops round here I've phoned the couple of closest ones and the earliest anyone can take a look at her is on Friday, so I'm out of action for at least a week. That really is cause for crying!!
So that's the good and the bad out of the way, you may be wondering about the ugly. Well that's me I'm sat here typing this in my pjs and I haven't brushed my hair either .... but I'm not showing you a pictures of that! :)
Oh, that is bad news, maybe a bit more retail therapy is needed
