Fuzz and Thread
Quite a few years ago, I responded to a gal that was looking for others interested in Machine embroidery. Fun to share successes, failures and hopefuls. Since then I have never been out of ideas and projects. Incorporating machine embroidery with sewing and quilting . . . no end to the possibilities. Adding to the wealth of projects is the channels I have subscribed to on YouTube. I have found the answers to questions I didn’t even knew I had.
My church tables are very seldom clean and tidy. Many I know have what is called a project wall. Several yards of flannel fabric either taped, stapled or held up by shear luck on a flat wall, arranging designs in real time before the sewing begins. Hmm. I look around and I do not have a bare wall in the entire studio. I chose to have shelving for my passions and count on the two church tables pushed together for my “what ifs.”
Dennis was down visiting this afternoon. He does his usual walk about checking what’s on the tables. Then he scans the shelves and asks if I remember what there all is. Anytime we have had a need with any item much like what the store Michael’s would handle, I have it in my hand in seconds. Dennis settled in to play solitaire for a while on the Dell I have in the studio.
There is no way I could explain how content I am in our forever home. It isn’t as if I put my interests above time with Dennis. This morning, he opened the back door and asked if I wanted to ride along over to the blue barn acre to see if there were branches that could be picked up. I had a jacket on before he had the little red pickup started. Before I start the studio for any given day, I do always ask Dennis if there is something he wants to do or if he needs help with anything. My studio is not on a time table.
By the way, I did log a complaint to Etsy in regard to the October 1st order I put in with no product delivered. Time will tell. Of all that I have done in regard to online transactions, once was once too much.
I have had a great breakfast coffee break and will return to cutting more of the 4″ blocks I need.
With that I take my leave. ♥
