    Today, a miracle

    I ran out of bobbin thread right at the end of a long seam! Didn't even know it until I went to start the next one. This almost never happens for me!

    I think it happens to all of us. My Bernina hum slightly changes but sometimes I just don't hear it.

    That happens to me every very long once in a while, but when it does it is a good day!!!

    I'm more likely to run out near the beginning of a long seam, but don't realize it until the end.

    Asking a seamstress to mend is like asking Picasso to paint your garage.

    Yes, that is indeed a small, but delightfui, miracle!
    A quilt is like a good life. It's full of mistakes, but, in the end, it looks pretty good.
