Though it is now the 3rd of the month, I truthfully acknowledge that I have already completed the requirements for the first and second days of the month. And, as soon as I hit "send" on this, I am heading to my stash and my sewing machine!Michelle Bantonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00749547697010494550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6048712117658611836.post-92133690446789766572012-02-02T01:41:52.059-05:002012-02-02T01:41:52.059-05:00Day 1.

However, I spent 2 hours picking up some fabric donated to quilt guild, and spent 20-30 minutes hand-sewing in the car while waiting to pick up DD from school. So while I didn't do what I planned, I did get some sewing done.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14719065818056464495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6048712117658611836.post-19241293449073549022012-02-01T22:04:15.451-05:002012-02-01T22:04:15.451-05:00Well, I beat myself..I would have thought that I&#...Well, I beat myself..I would have thought that I'd get around to this around 11:30 - but I'm done! Let the record reflect that since it was at the end of a very long day..it was an easy project...made binding and basis for another challenge project I'm working on. pics coming at some point, but I will try to put DaGMT on the top of the list, not the end of the day. I took a pic but I am too tired to post.LInda Pearlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05417542184094692090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6048712117658611836.post-7808501872488675282012-02-01T21:08:44.627-05:002012-02-01T21:08:44.627-05:00Oh my goodness, Val!

I had a walking foot on my machine but wanted to piece. Tried changing feet but must have lost a piece cuz that darn foot would not go on. Tried for awhile to figure out the problem before giving up in frustration. Doesnt help that I got out of the hospital Monday but brought home a lovely chest cold. <br /><br />Took a few hours to rest (and stop swearing lol), I decided to fuse my paisley butterflies onto the background fabric. So I did in fact get some time in today.quiltyValhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16555849761789004632noreply@blogger.com
