It’s What Can be Done
What I can do easily these days is clean house, laundry and embroider on my Bernina. I have 10 more days until I will be able to be tested for new lenses in my glass frames. Reading is out and it’s a good thing there is slim to none on television, as that does not do well.
Embroidery is a matter of selecting the design, gather together threads. I do have a pair of cheaters that can help out for a short duration. Wearing them too long does makes the head throb. I do use them before I hit “publish” for my blog. Proofing is a good thing.
I have hit the 2/3 mark on my skate towels for Carrie and Megan. 60 acceptable and four . . . not so good. There is a bit of wiggle room of the number of towels that Carrie provided. I have been increasing the density by 106% and that worked perfect for the stitches to cover the terry towel. Every once in awhile, four to be exact, I forget that important step.
I do have a second project in the works. Variety is good for the soul. In the photo of the towels, out yonder, I am working on some stitching of barns. The designs have a quilt block on the gable of the barns. Twelve in all. It’s a project in the works. Who knows!
By the way, the “End of the Week Soup” was a hit. We are featuring a re-run of it this evening in conjunction with a grilled cheese sandwich.
Tomorrow is a new week and I can tell you, Dennis and I are ready for it. Catch you another time.
