Hi there! My name is Anne. I grew up making things, for no particular reason: cooking, growing, stitching, glueing… it’s just something I have always needed to do. Pins & Thimbles is about my life, my loves, everything that is interesting.
I also make clothes for tall women: come visit at http://www.sarahvainandtall.com/blog

You should check out Reenie-su (http://reeniesu.blogspot.com/). I’ve swapped items with her and be comment regularly with each other, as well as explore the idiosyncrasies of speaking the same language 1/2 a world away. If I could come to Australia, I’d want to meet both of you, but since you both live in Melbourne… maybe you can meet on my behalf! Suzy 🙂

Hi Anne, I just read your post about the Mekong restaurant.
In reply, you should try Nhu Lan bakery in Footscray for good banh mi – the best actually. They have a store in Richmond, but I’ve not yet tried and compared as to whether it’s the same quality-wise.
