At 5:50pm on November 6, 2008, Leslie C said…: Hi Abigail I met a man who works with the British foreign office while in Malawi, his tour in Malawi came to an end and so now we are in the UK...it is all very exciting and I am visiting places I only dreamed of before. I feel very lucky and blessed. You know I never new that there was an embroidery guild in South Africa, I started getting embroidery in a "big" way while in Malawi. As I did not have to work I spent my days doing all the arty things I dabbled in while working. What do you do when you aren't sewing or creating? Hurry up and get a blog it is easy and you can't imagine what a world it opens up for you. How did you hear about stitching fingers?
