Hello Dear Friends! I am in a really foul mood. I was sewing along so nicely. Finished up the quilting & bobbinwork on Block #27. Took up Block #28 & started quilting. Got 1 heart quilted just fine. Continued on stitching & got all the center parts done - I thought. Turned it over to trim some threads & boy, was I surprised to see yards & yards of the invisible thread that's in the top all bunched up everywhere I had just quilted! Took it all out, re-threaded everything & started stitching, but checked after a bit - still acting up. Turned off the machine. Started it back up, re-threaded everything and started sewing, again. Still a mess on the back. I am letting it sit. Will try again tomorrow. I had broken a needle right before finishing up Block #27. I'll try putting a new needle in tomorrow before I sew. I hate the thought of having to take her to the Dr. However, the Dr. is also the LQS so it could be worse. If she doesn't work tomorrow, I'll get out my back-up Janome MC3000. And I was on such a roll, too. Haven't tried bobbin work on the back-up.

Have been watching a "Deadliest Catch" marathon & Kay's Mare Stare. Still need to mark the outer ring of blocks with white pencil & lightbox. Fusible is all drawn & cut out. Still need to iron to batiks & cut that out, so it's not like I have nothing to do!
