I had one of THOSE sewing days a few days ago...
But first, pretty fabric strips which do work into the tale of sewing woe...
It was one of those days alright, in no more than 30 minutes, I broke my feed dog knob on my old Bernina, SOB!
Then I broke my needle
I proceeded to fmq my glove into my quilt...
looks like one single entry but
EEEEEPPPPPP! Thank goodness my finger was spared!!!!!
I was posting these especially cool shots on instagram and was ready to walk away from sewing (for at least an hour) and I saw it!!!!!
Heather's post on a new quilt she was working on and was hooked!!!! So cool, but did I really need to start something so complicated when obviously I was sewing challenged for the day? I asked if there was a pattern and she linked me to Lucy and Norman where there is a It's a Scrappy Sew A Long!!!!! She is using the tutorial on Quiltville that even I can follow so I was sucked completely in!!!!!
I grabbed some fabric and went to work...not too bad but WRONG!
That was fine,I cut more fabric
When I finished with three I was feeling the groove
This is how far I have gotten as of this morning. I was going to make pillows but I think I will continue to make a whole quilt. I do think I need a larger design wall!!!!
So go drink the Scrappy Kool-Aide and join in on the fun!!!!
