Our newest little member.


Baby Elijah arrived in the wee hours of the morning on the 8th June after a much anticipated labour. A day before his due date, mind you but a quick labour was very promising.

At 4.20am he was pushed out and I have enjoyed every second after that (not so much before, lol) No stitches for mummy even for this big 4.04kg baby! The heaviest of my now complete brood of babies. He is doing very well and I feel pretty good as well.
We are completely over the moon and getting on with... life.

Thanks for dropping by.

    Fantastic to log on and read your news Kim! WOW - you are a mother of four now! That's a lot of kids!

    I love the name and what a beautiful little face he has wrapped up in his blankies.

    I hope you have a quick recovery and back into things soon.

    You are going to be fabulous. Enjoy these early days and take it slow.

I thought I might shed some light on the invisible zipper foot. I bought a Birch model from Spotlight and it came in a little plastic bag with four blue shanks and a rolling foot. First I removed the standard foot from my Janome sewing machine (Sewist 521). I realised I still needed to remove the shank, which is the part that is screwed on, and holds the interchangeable feet. So with one hand holding the screwdriver and one hand holding my daughter, who just had to watch, it popped out disappeared somewhere. NO! I was about to kick myself but luckily I found it in the basket underneath my table. Phew. The Birch invisible zipper foot comes with one shank already in place so you know how it's suppose to fit. You have to select the correct shank that fits your machine and slide it onto the foot piece. I just tried each blue part on my machine and made sure it was wide enough to cover the metal leg bit and that I could fit the screw in it's side. Once you find the correct shank sl...
