  • 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…

    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…
