I'm sad ... packed up my machine ... I really liked it and will definitely miss it.
I'm excited ... and looking forward to my new machine.
I'm nervous ... about getting to know this new machine!
and I'm worried ... that I won't have enough time for my new machine. Work geared up a notch today

... So sad what happened with SIL today. Some people are toxic and it appears you did a good job of trying to go into ignore mode. Though I know how hard one tries, it still hurts. Despite her, I hope you had a day of good memories and sharing with your family and friends about DAIL. Oh I bet you'll think of something for that little block ... a challenge in itself, with it's small size! I'll be thinking of you tomorrow and am sending some prayers out for only good news. I hope your BFF is going with you again, to help you thru the good or the less than so. Try to get a good night's sleep before you go. {{{{{HUGS}}}}}

MiraB ... what a disappointing day, though I suspect it was somewhat reassuring to you that you are in the "right" group! And here you had given us the idea that you were not like the rest of us, and that you did not have UFOs.

Though I have a feeling MiraB's will not have been abandoned as long as some of mine ......... and perhaps others? Or am I alone?

Anael ... Yup, ASAP ... no pressure! Though the sooner I get all back, the sooner I can complete my FFC! Do whatever you want to it ... have FUN, rememeber!

GrannyQ and JeanieG ... a lovely block indeed. Congratulations GrannyQ for that first trial with batiks!

GGal ... Oh go with the emotions! I didn't need a machine either, and really do like my machine, but heck, as everyone told me, you deserve it! What are you sewing on now, a 6600? The 8200 is a sweet machine and some great upgrades from the 6600. You do enough sewing, you can justify it! Or maybe you should look at a Bernina so you too can have a BSR?

DublB ... I looked at your pattern last night ... are the pinwheels done with HSTs? or are you doing Y seams? If HSTs, do them with the squares with double stitching line. It's on the bias, but not at all like sewing after it has been cut.




Anael … saw this one last night. Not sure if it’s the same as the one I gave you before. If so, just ignore!

… stumbled on this for an idea for a GFG finish. No need for a background fabric!

CarrieM … another stumble upon, which made me think of you!
