There is powerful evidence, too powerful to ignore, that quilting is a desirable and valuable activity to health, wellbeing and maintenance of social ties and independence as we age. Neurological research has found vital brain exercise is involved in making a quilt. Specialists in ageing commend quilting's benefits for brain health and its restorative benefits for social and emotional health and wellbeing. They well know the physical benefits of quilting to the Over 65s.Well, research is all fine, and it's good to have proof of what quilters have known for many years. However, try as we might we can't control the effects of age on our body. For some of us, physical ageing can be a challenge, if not a barrier, to continuing to quilt. As we grow older, hand quilting and machine quilting become difficult as our fingers, hands, shoulders and backs stiffen or become painful through arthritis. Age affects our ability to hold and use quilting tools and manipulate the weight of large quilts. We dread the time when we can no longer enjoy our well loved pastime.In "You're Never Too Old To Quilt", Christine Sutton presents a guide for all who, despite the painful effects of ageing, struggle to keep quilting, and for those who want to learn to quilt, but because of similar physical challenges have been hesitant to try.Based on "Quilt-As-You-Go" methods, Chris identifies tools and techniques to keep us quilting despite our aches and pains, making quilting easier for those struggling to meet the challenges of ageing and disability. Whether you are old hand, or coming to quilting for the first time, there is much in this book to foster the love and joy of patchwork and quilting and encourage quilters to keep on doing what they love.

Edmund (Ned) Collins 1817 - 1862; the Convict Baker's Boy, is a Family History Case Study in tracing convict ancestors. Genealogy is defined by the Oxford dictionary as "A line of descent traced continuously from an ancestor." Traditionally, genealogists use vital records and sound documentary evidence to trace back from a single individual to their earliest recorded ancestor, in a direct line on a Family Tree. The emphasis is often on how many generations there are on the tree; how high it has grown, how many branches there are and how wide it is spread. The tree is the focus. Family Historians, on the other hand, focus on people. They are interested in who their ancestors were, when and where they lived, how they lived, what they did, and why they made their life choices. They look for what has made them the people they are today. It is the driving force behind the television series, "Who do you think you are?" The emphasis is on the fruit rather than the tree. Neither of these approaches can stand alone. Family Historians need to practice good genealogical research. They need to follow the basic principles of genealogy in order to find the ancestor and tell their story. Family History brings another dimension to genealogy. It enriches it. The mystery surrounding Ned has taken many years of painstaking research to solve. The search began long before there were digitised records. With the birth of technology and the Internet, research has become easier, but no less time consuming, and far more expensive. When using online services that involve expensive subscriptions, Family Historians need to make every search count and know where the free sources of information are available. Throughout this book, you will find sidelines of tips and hints on how and where clues to your own mysteries might be found, where the free sources of Convict records are and how persistence, patience and an understanding of State record archives can remove bricks from the genealogical wall. Not only will readers find this book helpful in overcoming their inevitable brick walls and finding new sources of information, they will discover a little more about the life, times and struggles of ordinary people in a very vibrant period of Australian history.Chris Sutton is a genealogist and family historian with over 37 years of research experience. She holds a diploma of Family History from the University of Tasmania and is a writer and editor of fiction and non-fiction.

This little book is intended to give an overview of how the energy systems of the Human body work. It provides basic information and is pitched for people who work in non-precise ways with energy and those who are studying these topics. It is not intended to provide information in the very detailed form that Acupuncturists need.All energy therapies (e.g. Reiki, Reflexology, EFT, and TFT) work with the energetic parts of ourselves. They have been in use in various forms for centuries. In some cultures they are widely used and accepted, in others they have fallen into disuse and disrepute as the scientific model of life became established. This is particularly true of modern Western Cultures.
