Sew it Begins
The winds are howling and I am snug in my sewing studio. A few things going on as I am multi-tasking. The flash drive is in the Bernina and the embroidery unit is stitching. At the far end of the table I have Sadie’s tee shirts cut down for her newly requested quilt. No matter how much high tech I have, I still need my paper and pencil to the right of the sewing machine to calculate how to get the achieved size of Sadie’s quilt. It helps to have work area close to the machine for needed color changes of thread in the embroidery patterns. Tomorrow I can begin finding the fabrics from my stash boxes for the quilt. My goal is “Use what I have and not purchase!” I now also have room for my trusty Sears Kenmore machine on the far end of the church tables. It came in handy to sew buttons on Kevin’s shirts after I had mended them. Let the seasons change . . . I am ready.
