I didn't get the start that I had planned last night, but then I ended up sewing for over 4 hours, almost until midnight. Oh I was so tired, I just had to stop.
I did not sew on my machine though, but I have to today. I have two bee blocks to do today so I can mail them on Monday. I am scared to sew on my machine now, since it got back from the shop, if you are wondering why my nervous attitude, its because my machine sparked and plumed smoke out at me. The motherboard turning to nothing but a burnt black crisp. When I made my little pig quilt last weekend, I swear I kept smelling the smoke and I would sniff where it sparked, but then get scared that it would really start to spark and I would get hurt having my nose and eyes right there. Ahhh - Freak Out!! So I have not sewn on it since.
OK - too much text, onto the pictures right?!
So I went to sit at my machine, but found a Jada Bean in my place!
Bean: Oh its you, I'm pretty comfy up here, can you come back? |
Me: No Bean, it is FNSI, I need to sit at my sewing table and sew. Bean: Yeah well, I was here first and I'm a little busy as you can see. |
Bean: Hmp, I'll show Mommy! Kick me off the chair. Hmm what can I get into in the fabric heap? |
Bean: Right, OK. I will just sit here and imagine I made a mess and wait for your new room to really take revenge. hee hee hee |
Here is what I did accomplish after this mini battle.
I did the witch's face from my Halloween table runner. I entered this in the Pets on Quilts Show along with my Little Pig quilt. Today is the day (tomorrow to) to vote.

I completed all of the dark lines on Tika's body and face and then completed the details for his eyes and nose. |
