hey Whigrose, while cleaning up the office, my mind went wandering and you could do a machine applique with the machine stitching up a block or a crazy quilt or something like that. Or I can add that to your quilt when it comes around. Thought that sounded cool. Now there are spool blocks and you could add lines of colored theread around it, or use blank sashing between your blocks and applique little wooden spools of thread around and hand embroidery pins and needles as well. just the outlining stitches, Not sure where you were going with yours, but those would be nice.
Maybe Babeyruth would like some of those ideas as well, she is doing her sewing room theme as well.
Back to cleaning office. Got tired of paperwork now for some physical.
