You have what I can only dream about - a Sweet 16. It was going to be my retirement present however 6 months into retirement I was given a present that I never once thought would be in my dreams - BC. The funds for the machine and a NZ trip was used to fund our living costs in Perth (2,300 kms from home) during treatment. Oh well, my domestic machine and quilt as you go keep me happy and sane.
@arpie there will be pics. Our local CWA branch will hold its annual craft show in 2 weeks so I will send photos. Now there will be hell to play if my husand knocks me off my craft winning perch again!
@kmakm back in the 70's in my hippy / ashram enlightened days I lived in India for 12 months. Best time of my life. In Kolkata (Calcutta in those days) of all places. Ate at all the street stalls -ah street food- never got sick once. The family servants just could not get used to a strong Australian woman. Created some highlights and mayhem, much to the chagrin of my then (Anglo Indian) husband!
