A Thursday
On this Thursday the 28th, I did see about a dozen snowflakes fly, and then . . . no more.
My day is going very well. Before the first cup of coffee, I had the washing machine going.
On to putting our supper into the crockpot. I had no idea that Wal-Mart put together meals in one sealed tray; a bed of new potatoes, carrots, celery on the bottom, a cut of Chuck Roast on top that a flavor packet moistened rubbed on the roast with more liquid added to the flavoring poured to the bottom with an onion on the top. It is now 1:30 in the afternoon and I am getting whiffs of our supper. These darn kids find out all the new and improved ways to make days . . . wonderful. Thanks.
I do like to put into practice challenging items here in the studio. One photo has images of designs I found to download onto my computer. When I had bought my sewing machine, I purchased the Tool Box software. There were some free images to play with that I have never used. I was able to combine those images onto one text box, making a complete design. I then loaded that text box onto one of the flash drives I just smartened up yesterday. I made sure when I used that flash drive it came up on the sewing machine as I had planned.
With all loaded into the sewing machine there is also a file on my computer, I was able to print out the complete image from the tool box screen with all the called for colors of thread I will need in the stitching process. As my machine is a Bernina and the Tool Box is exclusive to Bernina, the Isacord threads are recommended on the embroidery and are thus in the printout.
My day has gone well. I will admit getting things done on the computer for the sewing aspect, does take me awhile. Do it over and over till I get a satisfactory outcome. As I said, challenging myself is a very good thing.
The studio will go dark as soon as I send off this posting. It is now time for some reading and hand stitching. The studio will be there and here for another day.
With that I take my leave. ♥
