Had anybody else noticed we are getting very cosmopolitan all of a sudden, most of the newbies are not UK based. How very refreshing.
As one of the international members, I’m happy to find a friendly place to hang out
I did, some time ago, register for a now defunct British sewing forum, but really just managed to lurk a bit. Once I discovered this forum, I became interested in joining the fun here. I must confess, there might be a side interest here as my heart (in the form of my eldest son) left Western Canada on a plane bound for Glasgow last November for an fabulous career opportunity. As well, my Father’s parents emigrated from Scotland via New Zealand and my Mother’s heritage is English/Irish.
My husband and myself are making plans to visit our son and do a bit of travelling, along with seeing relatives and just maybe pick up some lovely woollen fabrics along the way
. I have not travelled to Britain since I was in my late teens...things may have changed
My main interests here are needle crafts, but there’s other selfish ones for me as well in the form of some of you potentially recommending all the good haunts
