Long time - no blog. I have been running around like a BAF (blue arsed fly) since Paul came home so have not had time for blogging. However I have a few mins to spare and want to let you all know that he is doing fine. He sends his thanks to all of you who have sent kind wishes etc for his recovery.
I made him a welcome home present of a garden ornament featuring his favourite animal...(frog) He is a singer/guitarist- SEW..... ('scuse the pun) here it is....
This was made from a part of an old Singer sewing machine (the bit on the left of picture below) and here are the before and after photos of it, and another one, that I turned into a nifty potting table.
Above: Before and below After (as if you couldn't tell!)
Talk to you soon :-)
Here's an award I created for all my favorite blogs:

I'm so happy for you and Paul...great news! Wow, you are just too crafty with that sewing table. I suppose there are places where you can still find them in America; but, we don't live near any of them. I love the idea, though.
Thanks for the quick update...we'll take any updates we can get, no matter how short. Good on ya.

Great gift for Paul. I love old sewing machines. There's so much you can do with them that's for sure.
Glad Paul's doing well. Hugs,
