The Lost Thimble

I read Dan’ Brown’s book The Lost Symbol this weekend.

It made me think in a flight of imagination that Ann Brown could write The Lost Thimble.

But how does the plot go?

The Thimble is missing due to being mislaid, because of un-use. (is that a word)?

The search begins; and I have run out of ideas already – help me girls! I see a huge English house, green gardens, yew trees, and ladies in long skirts. But I am already imagination out!
Over to you – a sentence is enough! But make it follow on!

Fundraising party update.



Apparently much fun was had by all, and they raised R1100. Wow!




A photo of Coralie and Nicole.




And a photo of the quilt I made this weekend for Kylah. Kylah is Coralie's ex- Michael's daughter.

Miss Kitty's Dragons



Finally finished. I will be making it up into a cushion cover for Timothy's oncologist.




My entry into Anna's competition, Swirlygig - it is named 'In Celebration of Tim' - note the letters b.o.y. are highlighted. It is quilted, and has machine stitched hearts and leaves on the border. It did not win, but makes me smile - the winner was in both categories the one I voted for!

flat cat!

I know you all think I have been 'out for lunch' but I have been battling with a virus. It didn't flatten me, but it did flatten my spirits. So, no posts.

I am pretty fed up with how my blog has deteriorated, with my one track mind. Tim is not the only subject. He is dreadfully important, but I feel to tell you how funny the Indian Mynah birds were the other morning would be so trivial, but I will tell you anyway;

The birds were sitting on the railing of the balcony outside my bedroom. It was early morning and the curtains were closed. The sun was on the curtains. My cell phone was wailing that it's battery was running flat. Every time the cell phone tried to notify me that the battery was in danger of failing, a little bird tried to imitate the ring tone. It was cute and made me laugh!

You have not seen a picture of my finished 'Miss Kitty's Dragons' By Just Nan, and this has been finished for 4 weeks. Bad me!

So you see, my posts will have to lighten up sometimes, for 'me own sanity'.

great news!

I am going to be a granny again! I have known for 5 mins, and now you know too! When I was with Coralie over the weekend we did a tarot card reading, and I saw a pregnancy. Well on Sunday she started wondering when she had last a period, and then thought of a home pregnancy test. It is postive!!

I laughed and cried.
