Today - I played with some FMQ and drew and washed...
I was sent a wonderful gift from Janet
Of two Berol handwriting pens...one black and one dark blue ...the ones used by Sally Bamald...so that is what I was testing.
They worked a treat... thank you so much Janet!
and another boo-boo
I really should remember to be careful of the back getting caught up - wouldnt you think I would learn!!!!
I am currently frogging my whole cloth quilt - the bits I sewed today...
I couldn't get the tension right... and still havn't !!
I need sleep!!
I want to do something special like this - just want my machine to play ball first though - did some quilting the other night and have an issue again with bobbin drag, even a nest - hopefully I'll get it working perfectly this weekend
ReplyDeleteOh dear Joan, this has happened to me before on a couple of my customers quilts, I have learnt to bring the backing folded over to the front and pin in place to prevent this from happening.
ReplyDeleteYour work is beautiful as always. Do you find a difference in the pens?

ReplyDeleteI've never heard of Berol pens, I'm going to have to see if I can find some :0)
ReplyDeleteDo they rinse out easily?
