Shouldn't post this late at night and especially not after a glass of wine - or two.
Found a space to lay out the Millennium quilt so no more excuses - just need to make the backing and get enough wadding and I'd like to get this ready to quilt over the winter - yes the 2013/14 one.
The jumper I'm doing is not going too bad - think I've sussed out the pattern now and I'm over halfway up the back. It looks small for the size it's supposed to be but I suppose blocking at the end will sort that out - the tension is OK.
Showed the girls at the shop how to make continuous bias binding this morning and it was like explaining how to walk on water. They'd all tried with instructions and failed and it was like little lightbulbs going off. Think I might still get the odd phone call though as they try and get stuck.
Bev is coming round to stitch in my studio tomorrow - not a lot of room in there as it's rather crowded but that could add to the fun of it. Need to finish the second bag for Lisa and the notebook for her daughter for Thursday so hopefully will get this done in time.
Sarah has done really well in her latest assessments at school and is very happy that I've let her drop Latin - even though there's only 5 weeks left in the term. She's had enough and the teacher is driving her nuts.
So 1/2hr lay in tomorrow.
Mad clean up in the morning as I've been nesting on the sofa again and then sewing for hours and hours and hours...lol
Night night.
I enjoyed rag rugging in your sewing nest. Thanks.
