Impersonation on Twitter

I'm not a big fan of Twitter, so I don't use it as often as some other forms of social media. You can imagine my surprise when I found there was two of me on there. Well, not two of me, but two Threading My Way accounts on Twitter. Someone had impersonated me!!!

Additions to the Stash

It's becoming known amongst my friends, friends of family, and friends of friends, that I'm more than happy to help when someone wants to get rid of fabric they no longer need. A few months ago now, a good friend gave me bags and bags of fabric that one of her relatives no longer wanted. Seriously, it half filled the boot of my car.
