Look what came in the mail today.
What a wonderful book! Well worth waiting for.
Yesterday sewing!
The first 2 rows of my POTC going together...
I am halfway with these 2 - 7 more rows to complete after this
Practise machine quilting.
The white I did with great frustration...I couldnt get the tension right and was trying different threads.
In the top and bobbin.
Then I put the BSR foot on the machine, ,which I have been having trouble with, and did some sewing on the blue fabric. I used BSR 2 with the large clear foot, and much to my surprise,I actually managed to use it a lot better.
This morning I did some more squiggles with it, on the blue and now I am a lot happier. I am using silk thread top and in the bobbin...so I may get some more machining done on the Prism quilt later.
So Joanne I am keeping up with my daily practising.
Off to have a read of my wonderful new book, and to sit, listen to my audio book and do some more hand stitching on my POTC quilt.

I just waited a while for Jinny Beyer's book too. It was well worth the wait!
how do you like the book? Crispy mentioned it to me when she got it and I would like more opinions! I see we look at a lot of the same blogs I do not know why I hadn't seen yours before.

I like the swirls you made on your feathers. It adds your own unique signature to them! Lovely!
I´m pretty sure my BSR isn't able to make such a quilting ...*smiles*
