You know you're getting older when..

....policeman and teachers look as if they should still be at school....

....you have say who? when someone mentions a well-known celeb...

.... you know there is a hole in needle but just can't see it...

....you'd rather go to bed with a good book than stay up....

....you really don't care what other people think...

....you start sentences with - 'when I was a girl'...

....you remember the first version of the film everyone is raving about...

....you have more grey hairs than blonde ones.... and so on......

What brought all this one? Well I have been stitiching the binding on my first quilt - bought a special gold plated needle so that it would slide through the fabric with ease - trouble was that I couldn't thread it! Mr S got fed up with my asking him to 'just thread this needle for me' (don't think that he could see the hole that well either)

So I gave in and bought a needle threader - nifty little gadget - which puts the thread through the hole first time every time - its does just what it says on the packet, so why do I feel down about? Its that age thing, not wanting to admit etc





















But the binding on the quilt is done and I am really pleased with the way my first quilt has turned out - this is for the caravan and I have made a headboard to match - and the odd bag or two!!!
