I got this far today on the Baby Greens.
I still need to finish quilting the bird quilt. I am 3/4 finished and finally got the tension issues sorted out. I think it was the bobbin. It must have wound weird or something. Why I didn't think of that sooner. It would have saved me a lot of grief.
Tomorrow I am going to a Cambodian Art Fair downtown. I saw a write up in the paper a couple of weeks ago and reached out to them, thinking it might be something interesting to see.
Maybe to have. We had a lot of original art and my neighbor had a lot of Asian and Chinese art in her house.

The Cambodian Fair happens twice a month so if it is good we might make it something fun to do.
Downtown offers a lot of interesting things. Like breakfast, those fabulous beignets........calories!
Yesterday Carrie and I went shopping for some clothes. I have lost enough weight that most of my clothes no longer fit me. Even the ones I bought after the flood seem to hang on me now. That is a good thing. But I needed a few things that fit me better. (so in compromise, today I ate a donut and a hamburger.)
I started another month of Performance Classes and these are Core Body work outs. My shoulders and butt muscles are killing me from the Friday class! But I can tell you that I was able to hold a plank position for one minute while using one hand to shake a rope back and forth 20 times!
Super Woman!
It wasn't pretty, form wise. But that will get stronger as the month goes on.
Gotta start somewhere!
I hate to admit a bobbin is wound inconsistently on the long arm because it means I have to unwind all that thread into the trash. Someone suggested just rewinding onto another bobbin, but I get rid of it. It has happened twice in the 2 years I owned the machine. I won't put the bobbin down for fear I will forget to get rid of the thread. I like the greens and blues top and am sure that it will be a hit.
ReplyDeleteThe quilt top turned out so pretty.
