my first bit of sewing !

I sewed 2 patches together last night in backstitch

I found it very relaxing and time flew, then I made a loveheart, I half blue one half white, and sewed it on as a patch on an old pair of jeans with a hole in them...

the Blue and White represents Blackburn Rovers and it may catch on...

Son James is an Arsenal fan: I can see him doing a Gunners quilt! :)

I think that might be a possibility, if tickets are available and time is too! Auntie Mo Next Door is also a Gunners fan, so I shall see what we can do, as she'd also love the treat! :) Thank you so much for the thought, even if we never manage to work out the logistics.

James is a little skeptical about Rover's chances, but we shall see - giant-killers are all the rage and million to one chances always come up trumps! ;) Fingers are crossed - if you haven't any to spare from the sewing, extra fingers can be provided!

I just LOVE having an 11 YO! He was a fantastic baby (generally good, and people stopped me in the street to say how gorgeous he was!), and a highly entertaining toddler, and great as a little boy... But I'm a secondary teacher in remission, and having him at last in my teaching age group is wonderful! People keep warning me about the Teen Years, but believe me - I've seen it all, from angelic to asperger's syndrome, magical to moody... As a friend once put it: the crash between exams and hormones can be a tough one!

tell him I will do him a Gunners quilt Kate! I'll try and get it done by the time of the Carling Cup Final when it should be Rovers v Arsenal, as long as the Gunners beat Wigan and Rovers beat Man Utd

I will present it to him on the pitch at the Millenium Stadium before the kick-off as a Peace Offering between Clubs and Fans I have set up a page for you all to bookmark

the possibilities are endless ;-)

I left my adolescent outbursts until after my Dad passed away when I was aged 30 ;-)

I would have to charge for cost of materials, but my labour costs would be minimal being a labour of love for football and fans in general who make most of the game...
