It's 11.00 pm and its been a super day. The Govt even gave us a public holiday.!!!! Thank you.
The family made my birthday special and I appreciate it immensely.
Our Internet has been slowed the past few days so its hard to personally thank everyone, but once the situation has been fixed I can do that.
On my birthday, I always think of the miracle of my survival all those years ago.
I was just 3lb born and as a genuine baby boomer… I think it's amazing that I made it. No humid cribs in those days….well at least not where my parents were.
Mum told me that I was kept in a brown paper bag with cotton wool lining…
I don't know if it was fact or fiction…..!!!
Gees maybe that's why I'm like I am.!!! it explains a lot.
Mum and Dad have passed now, but I always have a special thought for them on this day.
pam ty for sharing this about your birth with us….hummm that could be the reason you have a passion for fiber…peg in l
Pam, the cotton wool part would definitly be correct. I had a baby sister born three months prematurely in 1945 and according to my mother she was wrapped in cotton wool. Unfortunatly she didn’t survive,she was just too small.
I am very glad you survived to share your love of fabric, and photos, and patterns and designs ….
