I am Tracey. I quilt, I draw, I sing, I photograph. I see colour, design and line everywhere I look. I married a man while we were both still at university and cannot imagine a life without him. Together we have managed to raise two teenaged children without any visible psychological scarring. I live in the tropics of Australia, not too far from my sisters and their children. I am a creature of the sun, I need warmth in my life. I do not like to be defined, I do not like to fit a mold, I do not like to stereotyped. I do not want or need for anything, so long as I have my home and family.
Hello and Welcome!
I'm Tracey. Designer of quilts, maker of messes, parent of teens, singer of songs and wife of my Pete.
This is my life... and life is good.

Quotation to sum up my philosophy of life:
Another belief of mine: that everyone else my age is an adult, whereas I am merely in disguise.
Margaret Atwood from Cat's Eye, 1998

Tracey,
I love your profile. It is a wonderful thing to be able to see yourself so clearly and communicate it to other people. I am glad to have met you.
I only just noticed your ‘about’ tab. (It’s rather cleverly hidden there in your header). It’s so nice to ’see’ you and put a face to your posts. I love to visit.
Hi Tracey,
I’ve just found your blog today through a comment you left on Molly Bawn Chronicles. I’m a fellow quilter, mother, grandmother and I live in Arkansas in the US. I can’t be in the sun much because of medications I take but I hate the dark and get as much light as I can into my home – even had a couple of sunpipes put in because the rooms were just too dark for me! I enjoyed your blog. Blessings, marlene
