My Story

Oupa Teddy from Scotland, Pippa, Piet and Poppie (handmade by Pam)









I arrived
I saw
I travelled the seas
By boat
South Africa
A teddy bear
A wicker chair
Highland dancing
School
Work
Money
Car
Draughtswoman
Mat-Hand
Married
Baby
Move to Johannesburg
Baby two
More work
Children boarding school
Patchwork
Pottery
New job

Now I spin
Now I write
I look forward to Table Mountain

I will travel
I will weave with the yarn that I spin
I will write regularly
I will do pottery again
I will laugh
I will dance
I will age but my spirit will never die.
