About

Hello!
I’m so glad you’ve dropped by.
I am Lily Boot – mother to Abigail, wife to Julian, student midwife, passionate reader, quilter, embroiderer and sewist, handy in the kitchen and around the house, reasonably handy with a camera, but pretty hopeless in the garden.
Here at block-a-day I chronicle our lives in a way that I hope will delight us when we are old and grey and wobbly of memory, and perhaps it will be of interest to you too.
I love to read your comments – such a lovely way to connect with kindred spirits – and endeavour to answer questions within the day’s comment section.
I can be contacted at lily (at) blockaday (dot) com. Thanks for visiting!

What can I say but wow! Mum asked me to have a visit after your visit to The Quilter’s Store today. A definate on the blog roll (when I get on my own computer again….) and to come visit regularly. Have you considered putting your kokeshi on Etsy?? Haven’t seen any there yet.
I have never seen the word “sewist” before. Google even marks the word as misspelled. I do come from a long line of seamstresses , however. Such a lovely word for the gifted women in my life. Does sewist mean the same thing?
