While the embroidery machine is chuntering away I have little to do, but cant really get distracted by another project
You can see from this photo that the parts of the polo shirt that have been pushed away are just waiting for me to pay attention to another project so they can flop down and get included in the embroidery
But after basting a few quilts over a coffee break, I managed to quilt around the flowers on this little quilt while the other machine was embroidering, and then quickly add the binding to the front before I started the next shirt
And then the same again with this one
Then in the evening Shawshank Redemption was on TV, a crazily long movie, but one of my favourites, so I settled down with glasses and needle and thread and hand stitched binding on this
and this
Yay two finishes!!!!!
(really chuffed with the scrappy binding on the Oakshott Triangles)
I started this blog for me - it expanded to show BFF Jackie what I was doing - and a few others have invited themselves too - everybody welcome! Mostly about patchwork, with random comments about embroidery, family and life in general, come on in, put your feet up, and I'll put the [virtual] kettle on.
Very productive missus!
ReplyDeleteYou have been busy, and very organised to fit that all in around the embroidery.
ReplyDeleteYou are putting me to shame with all the work you are doing :-)
ReplyDeletewell done you, gold stars for multi tasking.
