Hello All,

Thank you for bearing with me on this episode. I recorded on my phone from bed with no editing (yikes!) and no intro and outro music. I have not been this ill since 2 years ago, when I got pneumonia! Just when I thought I was almost recovered from the virus, I now have bronchitis. I think you will still enjoy this episode as I have good things to share with you like the new Juki sewing machine, new release of EQ8’s add-on Dear Jane digital quilt version and more.

I hope you all are doing well, and are not going stir crazy if you are in a mandated stay at home month. Be well and be creative!

xxoo’s, Stephanie

What I am watching:

Amazon Prime:

• Little Dorrit (2008): based on the novel by Charles Dickens. Interesting to see actors back in the day. Claire Foy (the Crown), Matthew Mc Fayden (MI5, Pride & Prejudice 2005)

• Sense &Sensibility (2008 BBC): based on Jane Austen’s novel. Edward Farrars played by Dan Stevens (Downton Abbey’s Matthew)    I prefer Hugh Grant character. In fact, I prefer the original Sense & Sensibility 1995 version with Emma Thompson, Kate Winslet, Hugh Grant & Alan Rickman (Harry Potter )

• New EPIX series Belgravia. Based on Julian Fellows novel. Belgravia is an affluent district of London. 

• HBO: Rewatched Emma from 1996 : Gweneth paltrow, Toni Colette, Jeremy northam, Evan mcgreggor

• Finished War of the worlds - EPIX - depressing end to the season, has a walking dead style with never know what will happen to key characters 

• Disney+. Elephant narrated by Megan markle; Dolphin narrated by Natalie Portman - and the making of episodes were amazing

• Showtime: Homeland - last season is good, but not much different than previous seasons

• STARZ: Outlander -good episode interesting cinematic scenes. I love the period piece costumes

• YouTube:

  • The Last Homely House - Kate doing a series of taking care videos 

  • Sew Sweetness Sewcial Sunday - 20 questions

  • Hot & Flashy: makeup and skin care for 50+

  • Gossip: Juicy Scoop with Heather McDonald - Megan King Edmonds former RHOC talked about the divorce with Jim Edmonds - so much drama and its really sad too.
