My telling off doesn't seem to working all that well and since my stash is rather depleated I have been indulging just a little.
Look what came for me today.
Yummy fabrics from The Sometimes Crafter and Giddy 4 Paisley

On to some very exciting news, my new baby arrives tomorrow!!!! I won't be sleeping tonight, I'll be too busy thinking about all the wonderful projects I will be making.

Well I got off the computer and spent the day cutting up small scraps into 4" x 1 1/2" pieces, hundreds of them!!!! Time to make some stacked coin quilts I think.

Hi Sue, I followed the link on your comment on Rita's blog when I saw that you were about to take possession of a 6600p. I too have one of these fabulous machines and I just wanted to let you know about the Yahoo group for 6500/6600 owners because it has been such a valuable resource for me in getting the most out of my machine. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Janome6500/
ReplyDeleteI thoroughly recommend adding the additional AcuFeed feet, especially the 1/4 piecing foot with guide and the open-toe foot (way better than the stitch-in-the-ditch foot in my opinion, lol). I sold a Bernina 153QE to buy my Janome and have never regretted it - LOVE this machine. Have fun!
I hear you on needing to get off of the computer. I have wasted an entire afternoon and evening on here! I could have been sewing! I should have been sewing! Family is gone so no dinner to cook or anyone to interrupt and here I sit. ARGH!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI completely understand your problem. My husband says I am OBSESSED with Flickr, Blogs etc and he's probably correct! How are the Coin quilts going? I love making them, so satisfying!
