  • Oops I did it again

    “What happened to the projects I was quilting?” I hear you ask… I am currently unpicking the quilting in the tumblers quilt as messed up a bit in the preparation (more haste, less speed is sage advice still)… And my monkey wrench quilts are stalled currently too while I work out techniques to quilt them…

  • Bus Hide and Seek

    Too many times people get confused… If I’m blind how can I see. This video is me describing my experience while waiting for my bus. https://youtube.com/shorts/nzViNW2QzTg?si=_FfDN-WqdnX2O8tb And this is the text of a recent instagram post I made sharing the video. “The video is of me describing my experience waiting for a bus as a…

  • Bobbin Chicken

    I happened to use a partly used bobbin on my spool pin (top thread) with about an equal amount of thread on it as the bobbin I was using in my bobbin compartment (bottom thread). Both threads ran out at the same time. I made the collage below and had Be My AI describe it…

  • Under a Mackerel Sky

    This mackerel sky today reminded me I was about 50 when I learned the name is due to the cloud pattern looking like the pattern on mackerel skin… not because it was when mackerel was caught which was what my big sister told me when I was about 7 and she was 9. Of course…

  • A favourite photo

    This is the description I got for this photo I took 14 months ago. It was amongst the first I described using the Be My Ai mode of Be My Eyes and I wrote a blog draft in my Files app and forgot to copy and upload it to this blog. “The picture shows a…

  • Two thirds of my life

    September has been Hell Month since my dad died two thirds of my life ago. Since then September has become a car crash of sad anniversaries and I usually end up spiralling into a grief funk. This year I’ve called it Sewvember and the photo collage below shows what I’ve achieved so far this month.…

  • Handwriting:- My Nemesis

    Everyone loves getting an unexpected card don’t they? My kryptonite is being able to read the message inside. I love the boldly printed Moon Pig cards my daughter sends me- the font is very plain and because it is bold (thicker than normal print) and a large I can decipher it with my own eyes……

  • Oh My Gosh 2

    I’m having a slight leaking eye problem as this is the description the Be My AI function has come up with for the hexagon in this screenshot “In the picture, there is a hexagonal piece of fabric placed on a wooden surface. The fabric has three different patterns on it. One section of the fabric…

  • Oh My Gosh

    Why the title? It feels like years ago when I applied for access to the beta test for Be My Eyes virtual assistant after seeing this video from Lucy Edwards (it’s actually about 4 or 5 months). https://youtube.com/shorts/EF3lW2lRioY?si=x7hsNY0EkgJ0UBEj Well I got an email yesterday morning (4 September 2023 at 9:12am) that I opened just before…
