I picked up my new old chair that I bought off Trade Me. I thought I'd sand and polish it and recover it with fabric made of selveges but I think that would spoil it so one day I'll get some old style fabric and make a selvege cushion!! It reminds me of the chairs my grandmother had and it'll fit in the corner of my sewing room. (I'm sure you won't see much of it when it's covered in fat quarters haha).
Yesterday marked the 2nd anniversary of my Dad's passing and it was no different to any other day because I miss him everyday but I think he was around looking after me. The weather was gorgeous for once and despite my car being in the garage everything was well. And today, wonderful news that the repairs to my car only cost 1/4 of what I'd expected.

Back to sewing. I love my Sew Ezi table. It's just perfect. I'll take photos soon. I've just about sold enough 'stuff' on Trade Me to pay for half of the table. Way to go ah!

Hi Karen,
Just looked at the photos again and see our house in the background and looks like that might be Murray standing there.
Did you hear that Tuddy Collier passed away?

lol... I forgot to take a photo of that card too! Darn, I almost always do too. Thanks for the tenner... it did come in handy for the medicine, which was 20! Stew is a hard case eh? Lucky I love him. Though, he didn't get ANYTHING ...yet!
