Record Breaking
We are in the midst of record breaking temperatures these last days. Living a dream but not going to leave February out of what could be a nightmare.
Without any delay, I got myself into the studio today. I had had too many days where it wasn’t in the plans. This design pattern is over 90,000 stitches. There are 24 different colors used over 34 times. It is a challenge for me that I have wanted to do for several years. My hope is to have a beautiful sewing tote.
As usual Dennis came in at noon and asked if I was going to come up for air. No. I am going to see this through and all systems have been working smoothly. I had the filled bobbins to swap out. It is 2:45 and I have two hours remaining. My machine is set at a modest speed. I don’t have the heart or the courage to run it wide open as Amanda from Bird Island does. I have no tech to fix it on the spot as she does.
This day has been in the planning for some time and I am enjoying the fact that one eye is on the embroidery hoop and the other is cutting out some quilt blocks.
I have no idea what has gone on anywhere else on our homestead.
With that I will take my leave. ♥
