I would work on it down at Mum's place during our Thursday night sewing group. Not one piece of that fabric was home for him to see!! Didn't want to chance it!

so far the only place I know to post it is on my Facebook page.. and then you have to be a Facebook member and do a friend request. Not sure if I would post it on Utube.... not sure where else I could post it. :(

I am thinking of setting up a blog for myself, but I have a few other things to work on first before I start that as they are a bit time consuming to set up
