Tools of the Trade

What's all this?

I use many (many) tools when I'm working a quilt. This one I'm doing for Christine is so large and has a lot of space to be creative. Here are most of the tools above that I'm using in her quilt.

I'm past the half-way point and will be working this all of today. Jim has taken [another] day off to take DW back down to Gall for the repair on the repair.

Did I tell you about that? The new hopping foot/needle bar assembly wasn't installed correctly. The hopping foot is not sitting level to the throat plate and he's skipping stitches like crazy. It's frustrating with this machine that every time he goes down for a repair, he comes back with another issue and has to go back down again.

I received a UPS shipment yesterday. I was expecting batting (which was one of the packages). I also received another quilt for the queue and a surprise package; the new Shop Hop Magazine for 2025...

This years magazine

And look!

Linda and I are in it!

So excited to see my work in print. Again! Happy Friday!!

Unexpected Day Off

But so worth taking the time to spend with my best friend, Jim. We scooted around to all of the appointments that we were scheduled to deal ...
