CLAIRE TURPIN –
MY PET HATES


  • I don't have many pet hates,
    as life’s too short and too busy.
    However, I’d love it if my kids
    picked stuff up off the fl oor
    and didn't leave fruit in their
    school bags!

    • Facebook ‘Likes’ do not
      equal talent – they do
      sometimes, but quite often not.
      Drives me a bit bonkers.

    • Pokeman hunters in Kings
      Park, in Perth, are what you
      might call an irritation. They
      look down all the time and so




they miss all the amazing beauty
around them.

JEMIMA FLENDT –
MY PET HATES


  • I have to admit to not being
    a big lover of reading – unless
    recipe books and quilting books
    count. I’d much rather sit and
    relax with some hand sewing or
    crochet than read. I fi nd it hard
    to just sit still – even while
    travelling in a car – without
    something to do with my hands.

  • I just hate equipment and
    thread that is cheap and nasty.
    I don’t see any point in quilting
    or sewing and spending lots of
    money on fabric only to have
    it fall apart with nasty thread
    or being frustrated with tools
    that don’t work as they are
    supposed to.
