Oh Skeat you make me laugh. Marmite it black stuff (yuk) made from yeast which loads of people spread on toast etc. (double yuk) Its very high in vitamin B so they tell me, good for keeping the mosquitos at bay. Guess who gets bitten cause I hate the stuff.
Good luck with the Paper Piecing. Your like me I never try anything easy, I have got to challenge myself all the time.
