Sleeping in was no waste. We all need to do that sometimes. I was all set for doing an afternoon of machine quilting on a Christmas project that wasn't finished.

[If I put it away to finish by next Christmas, it won't get done so I thought I'd get it done now.]

Well I was having a great time until the top thread jammed in the bobbin area. Had to try to remove the walking foot and needle so the backing wouldn't tear. So I sacrificed my new needle, broke it then finally succeeded in removing the foot. Finally yanked the piece far enough to clip the thread. Backing unharmed. Cleaned out the bobbin area, got the machine set up again and it was time to put up everything. DRATS. One wasted sewing moment. Some of you accomplished so much!
