Oh, good call!! I didn't even think of the thread on the machine.
Ditto .... on the machine, and threads that walk around your home, stick to your clothing and in the garbage!
I did one a year ago for a friend that is in and out of my home several times a week. The secret thing started right when I bought the fabric ... I'd seen it, didn't buy it ... and then decided I had to have it. The problem was it was ove an hour's drive each way. So had to drive fast, and fabricate my whereabouts that day!! Got it, then onwards ... It was fun keeping it as a secret ... and a challenge at times to make sure it was all away when they came, or when there was a surprise visit! YIKES!!!!
Managed to get it completed, off to the LAQ, wrapped, and given for a special occasion ......... talk about surprised and pleased!! Which made me all the more thrilled, that my secrecy was well worth it!! :) Have fun with your secret!
