Muse&Sew your mini is finished, and will go out tomorrow.
Sneak Clue instead of peak: I hope you like Santas.
I do need your address, because if I have it I didn't see it. lol..which simply means I goofed...lol.

I think I've narrowed it down, and will be doing my mini this weekend. I have to finish a high-chair tutu for a 1st birthday party, then I'll be able to settle down and sew tomorrow. I could use the therapy! You know it's time to move on to a new job when you think about being home when you're at work, and dread work when you're at home!

I have two new (to me) machines I have to sit down and figure out. They're both older, so it's going to take some patience, as I have no clue how to thread them even! If only I could stop collecting UFOs I might be able to do the necessary stuff (like organize my disaster-area of a sewing room and set up my new machines, and try free-motion quilting)

Can Stay-at-home-quilter be considered a job option??

In a word, YES!
But, I'm pretty sure though the "pay" can warm your heart and feed your soul, it can't warm your house nor feed your tummy...dagnabbit!

Unless you do some of that quilting for others for "real pay".

Regards,

I received the most beautiful mini from JuanitaBean. The quilting on it is impeccable! You can't see the quilting too much in the picture. She also included a lanyard that I can attached to my scissors so that I won't lose them, a nail file, a lot of project sheets from Joann Fabrics and a nice card. Thank you so much Juanita. I love everything!!!

klaws, I love that mini! Is that done with each "layer" on the tree not sewn down so there is a 3D look? What a great idea! So crerative, JuanitaBean!

Yes, each layer is only sewed down on the top and the next one layered over it. The whole block was quilted before any of the tree was attached. It's awesome!

Very festive Christmas tree JuanitaBean! Looks like lots of mini's are going in the mail. Mine will be mailed to JuneBillie on Monday!

Put dabbler312's mini in the mail yesterday. Got all my sewing done. Strange week. My DS MIL passed away last week and we were organizing for the funeral. Then suddenly this morning we get and e-mail from my DH's step father. His mother has passed away. AN E-Mail!! Who emails someone that their mother is gone? I have always known that the man was strange but that beats all.
