It's been a long time since I posted. I have been working!!! Sounds really funny at 64!
I had 4 days last week, and found it very challenging at first. But the folks there are very helpful and supportive. The first few days were spent getting used to a professional satin stitch machine - it goes like the wind! But lovely! Now that I have the bobbin loader, threading and slow mode figured out, I should be better appliqueing on the bag flaps.
I had a cat to applique - my favourite thing - with many little pieces, but it finally took shape - the best one yet.
I am also still working on my articles for the store. The bag is filling up with goodies to sell. I have already sold my Sachiko pillow to a neighbour - so made another one. And a friend in the choir I am in, asked me to make a denim apron the same as her favourite. That is done now, so I can get back to making more casserole carriers. There is never an end to sewing these days - wonderful!
Well have a good day - now that spring is finally here -the sun is shining today - must go have lunch with my friends at Green Acres restaurant and trailer park. It burned down last summer, and is finally up and running again. We are so glad to have it back. The food is great, and the atmosphere is friendly. And the roast beef - marvelous!!
