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.

    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
