There will be TATA (travel around the area) in my next post which I think will be liked by all or at least I hope it will be. Hand-sewn shirt ... impressive. I expect that took awhile.Pretty sure they will both be happy to get your old sewing machine.

I loved hearing about your Aunty May and I'm pleased that the vaccine program is speeding up, it's a pity the whole world wasn't doing as well because no one is safe until everyone is safe I recon. Well done to your daughter it's lovely when they take up a craft and sewing is great she may get the urge to make her own clothes too. My daughter wishes she could sew because she hates what clothes are available in the shops but knows exactly what she wants. I have told her to learn and that's as far as it goes really haha.

It looks like a lovely place to live and to visit too. I love the older homes in England.<br />I'm glad your daughter has developed an interest in sewing. I will be giving our daughter my new sewing machine I bought for in the trailer and getting my 40 year old one back. I prefer it very much.<br />I hope you soon find something to make.

I'm glad the vaccination programme in Spain is beginning to roll out well. Good for your daughter on her machine sewing adventure. My daughter isn't interested at all, so my son is in line for my old machine (when we can finally meet him in a couple of weeks - WOO-HOO!) as he's the sewer. He's looked online for how to sew darts in a shirt that was too baggy, and his wife has hand-sewn a linen shirt. That's what you call a labour of love! I'm sure your crochet mojo will return with a vengeance soon. Mine's gone a bit AWOL too.😁 xxhappy hookerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06895402170116525521noreply@blogger.com
