There's so much space in SA and Oz, I felt claustrophobic here. (I don't like all their 'creatures' though!) And sometimes, it was far too hot. There's nothing quite like the English countryside and I am fortunate to have it so close.Marilynnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18554411.post-29160821070988831732010-07-02T18:33:40.373+00:002010-07-02T18:33:40.373+00:00Lol!

After talking about starting for 6 months I may actually do it.<br /><br />It would be brilliant if you could do a book signing in London, I'd love to meet in person. I wanted to come to Buxton(?) last month but I had my driving test on the 11th and lessons on two consecutive days beforehand. <br /><br />Also thank you for adding books you enjoy reading, the last time you did, I went and bought a couple and thoroughly enjoyed them.<br /><br />ShafiaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18554411.post-13157006547651712592010-07-02T06:55:29.257+00:002010-07-02T06:55:29.257+00:00Hi Shafia - I was wondering about your patchwork p...Hi Shafia - I was wondering about your patchwork progress.As far as I know, fat corners are probably the same as fat quarters, which means a small bit of fabric, where a quarter of a metre is a relevant dimension...not very helpful, am I????? I have seen fat quarters rolled up in baskets in patchwork shops (when I go in to buy the quilt lining) but I don't buy them. I am a bit of a purist about patchwork and try to use old, secondhand material from home, or from jumble sales. But if you are starting from scratch, with nothing you want to cut up, then fat quarters/corners are a good way to go.<br />As for the London book signing, who knows what will happen in the future? I may have some news for my readers, soon, about my next book. It would be so nice to meet you, and all my other regular blog readers.Sue Hepworthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15371516958537364663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18554411.post-57291631764869795112010-07-01T19:08:18.509+00:002010-07-01T19:08:18.509+00:00If you die today, *I* would mind!

I've no idea what they are but from the photograph they looked like biggish squares of fabric which I thought would be a good start - can you clarify any more on them?<br /><br />ShafiaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18554411.post-30122897530269612582010-07-01T14:59:59.222+00:002010-07-01T14:59:59.222+00:00Hi Mariliyn, don't get me wrong.

But when I go back there now, I wonder how I used to put up with being hemmed in by all those other houses.<br />(p.s. I like The Showroom, too.)Sue Hepworthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15371516958537364663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18554411.post-32558218717253881742010-07-01T14:02:09.899+00:002010-07-01T14:02:09.899+00:00It's raining here!

Now I can't imagine living anywhere but the countryside. But then it *is* midsummer at the moment. I often dream of city life in February.Sue Hepworthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15371516958537364663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18554411.post-22816523614443404722010-07-01T11:09:22.602+00:002010-07-01T11:09:22.602+00:00I am so jealous!!
