It has been 4 weeks since my last post. That seems like " a long time between drinks " but there hasn't been much happening. Well nothing new to "write home about ". I am slowly. Oh ever so slowly sorting the stash , re organizing the stash and cutting up bits along the way when I need a sit down.
But all that changed when I found this bundle of cotton clothes line on Monday morning. I had purchased it a while back. Truth be told quite a while back to make a bag. You know the fabric wrapped coil bags. I looked at it thinking well it won't "go off" and put it away in the soon to be sewing room.
Monday night happened and a dear friend came to quilting stitching the beginings of a wrapped coil bag. That was all the prompting required and on Tuesday morning I arrived at quilting with some orphaned fabric and my rotary cutter.
After cutting bias strips and wrapping rope I was ready to start.
All set up with walking foot and zig zag set I have started a project that has deffinately reached it's use by date.
I was so happy on Monday night that I resisted the initial urge to toss the clothes line.
The stash sorting might be taking a detour but there will be less to put away.
Looking forward to tomorrow. Rehab in the morning and stitching in the arvo.
Enjoy your Friday Terry.
