"Don't you get bored?"

Hi everyone. Thanks for visiting my blog.

For anyone who doesn't know me, my name is Sally. I have been happily married to Steve for almost 26 years, and we have three grown up children.

I live in Leicestershire in the East Midlands.

I also have a cat Sooty, and loopy dog called Toby.


Sooty as a kitten.

Last year I retired early as I have had a few health problems. The question most people ask me is "Don't you get bored?". Answer: NO!

Thanks to my friend Jill getting me hooked on quilting, I always have plenty to keep me occupied. Also there is Toby to walk, and a million things to do. My day flies by!

Recently I decided to take up knitting. I used to knit a lot when the children were small. I started by making chickens at Easter for the baby ballerinas at my daughters dance school. Each contained a creme egg. They were very popular!

This was my first one. The ones for the children had embroidered eyes for safety.

Yummmmmm! Then I have knitted a baby cardigan. Not sure why, as no Grandchildren yet, but I just enjoyed doing it.
I have also made some items for the home which I will show on another blog. So bye everyone.
Call back soon!
