Janice I wish I didn’t have to move my stash. First trailer load of fabric is going to storage today. I would just like to leave some containers here till the boom fabrics arrive and I can choose the just right fabrics to meet all the requests. If Kelly buys I will ask to leave my sewing machines here till we find a house. He will have so much room I doubt if she would even notice them
Sewbiz your fabric gives us lots of colors to choose from
Kristijoy homeschooling takes a lot of work and dedication. Good luck on your chemistry plans

Macybaby, nice to hear from you. I have way too many sets also so I’m sitting this one out, too.
Zinnias, I have one set of fabrics already and at least six more on the way. You all are so quick this round! If I get them all early, I will ship them early. I’ll always try to email you when your pkgs arrive shortly after they’re in my hands.
We have a nice sunny but cool morning. It’s a welcome respite from all the rain and clouds all week long. The weekend is coming!

Nelco, you bet you do! LolAnd Kristijoy and Hav4boys get silver stars for their packages. They turned up in today’s mail.
Several more are due on Saturday.
Time to go back and wrestle my old machine. Suddenly having top thread breaking issues. Haven’t ever experienced this before. I’ll clean and change needles and retread again. Very perplexing. Seems like a tension issue but it hasn’t been changed. Hmmm.

Mine aren't in the mail yet. I've discovered that what I thought was 3 yards was just less so I was only able to get 18 FQ from my presidents. There is a different fq coming that will be a companion fabric for the quilt for someone to get. Maybe someone that is doubling up so one fq is presidents and the other is coordinating fabric? I will let Janice sort it out, lucky her. I hope to hit the post office on Saturday to ship everything out. ( I'm carless until tomorrow night.)

Good morning, Zinnias. Seems like everyone is either prepping fabrics or shipping so that’s good news. Remember, the due date is the 17th so there’s time yet!
I’m slowly working away on my scrap quilt. I managed to fix the sewing machine. Turns out it was a bad bobbin that wasn’t turning evenly. Changed bobbins, problem solved. Happy days.
Happy Friday!

Hmmm.... this one is a stumper SBG. Maybe something will come to be once I see the and feel the fabric. Does not lend itself to paper piecing but I will come up with something. That pomegranate grabbed me. (probably will get a piece without a pomegranate..lol)
