At home

I have had an early morning walk along the beach

The supervisor got a lot of attention from the boys who visited over the weekend...he was playing I am not interested here but listening all the time!!
Yesterday I went over to Portarlington in the afternoon

and did some quilting on a lovely ladies machine. it did not go smoothly, the machine did not like the cotton I took over, so it kept breaking. We changed over to another thread and then the tension went wonky...so it was a challenge.....was not happy having to unpick a row of quilting!!!

I had supervision by young Mitsy, isn't that a beautiful face!

another hexie is complete, one is out of whack, but I am not doing any unsewing!!

and today I need to do some trimming and binding on this book reading quilt.
Lots to do today so I had better get going.
Happy sewing.

  5. Well done Sue, your (nearly) finished quilt looks great but it's never nice to have to unpick!
