Sewing

This is Hans Heysen's painting of his wife Sally at her sewing machine. There is a Hans Heysen exhibition at the Hobart Museum and Art Gallery at the moment.

I wonder what she is sewing?

Happy New Year, too. 2010 is going to be a ripper. There will be some more give-aways here too. I also have my Pay It Forward to do.
Soon.

She is sewing baby clothes. I love that painting too.
and, I have actually been sewing - am on a "finishing-off mission" I finished off the ham, the turkey, the Christmas pudding and now I am finishing off quilts
