SIX UNIMPORTANT THINGS ABOUT ME


This has been really difficult to work out but I finally came up with these.

When I was about 11, I won 1st, 2nd and third prize in a photography competition because I was the only contestant.

We have not had a TV for nearly 20 years although the purchase of a computer 8 years ago means we do watch DVDs.

I loathed Domestic Science at school ( needlework and cookery) and gave it up as soon as possible

I have never made anything that I can wear other than the occasional piece of fabric jewellery.

We used to have an arcade pinball machine in our 17th floor flat.

First rode pillion ( on a scooter) at around 6 years old.

I have tagged the following blogs ( all people I read regularly and enjoy)

Clevelandgirlie
Cold Feet Quilter
Fabulous Threads
Lise's Blog
Serendipity
zquilts


Playing is entirely voluntary, I won't be offended if you don't.

Since I feel the need to add a photo, this is pretty much the only piece of crazy quilting/patchwork I have ever done. It was a runner up entry in a sewing magazine contest last year.

It is GORGEOUS! Wow! What magazine?
I had a quilt puvlished in several magazines. They all sent me copies. I think I accidentally gave them away when I was purging stuff once! It makes me mad at myself every time I think of it! Darn!

Thanks for tagging me. I'll have to think on it a bit. Unimportant ..hmmm....
