    My brother has started spinning recently and loves it, likes the challenge, but then hes competed in some semi-pro bike races in the last year so hes at a scary level of fitness.

    I'm thinking next week if somehow I get time I will try to get a bit of practice in on the sewing machine. I have a few books on simple things to stitch, might make a tea towel or something!

    Afternoon everyone.

    I feel awful today!!! Think i have caught lots of germs. Had an interview this morning, think it went ok so fingers crossed would be a few more hours and a bit of extra money.

    OH got hom fine lastnight, thanks for asking! Although i couldnt go settle until i knew he was home fine. Hes working til midnight tonight and will be walking home alone so still a bit worried but if those guys have any sense they wont do the same thing twice!!

    Hope your feeling better soon Dinah.

    Glad your OH survived the night Flower and sorry to hear you're not well. Fingers crossed about the job - what job is it?

    Haven't had chance to look at my new sewy book, worked all through dinnertime and my soup got a skin on and everything :( I think I'll leave at 4 in that case, and spend some quality time with the book! I know what you mean though Dinah, definitely need to spend a bit of time practising straight lines and so on!

    Spininng was very painful when I did it, couldn't walk properly for days haha. We ended up on the rubbish old bikes though with no cushioning.

    I just found out my friend is having a baby boy, very exciting!

    I made you a sample curve. Apparently the best samples have mistakes so you know what you need to do differently. I think my sample curves are A* examples on this basis.

    :rotfl: Well at least they're good for something! ;)

    You know the 1/2 metre of fabric we had to buy - is that what we're doing our sample bits on now?

    Thanks for that Wendz, I fear this class may kill me - but it's a good calorie burner I guess. How exciting for your friend! She can get thinking about names now!
