a sigh of releif

I LOVE starting new projects. . . . I really do, just like every other quilter/sewer i know. . . . . and i have lot's of projects on the go . . . . .but what i also really love is finishing projects. . . . . . I love that sense of achievement when something is finished and i can say . . i Made that . . . . . . .  it's finished I also love that amazement when i look at the top of my sewing cabinet and go wow that's right that's the colour of the cabinet . . . .as the mountain of projects have magically disappeared. you see i need to confess that i have a very annoying illness, i need things to be tidy. . . .  yeh i know, i know . . . . . but i can't help it i just really like a bit of order, it makes me feel good . . . . so now your thinking i am going to have heaps to show you . . . .  nope can't show you yet. . . .  it's secret stitching , I have been very fortunate to be part of Chookyblue's secret santa swap for 2012 these lovely wrapped

Friday night with friends

Well i can't show you what i worked on on friday night, because i worked on my secret stitching. . . . . nearly done. but what i can show you is a project that i completed recently i have been part of a sewing class specifically created for my model sewing machine. the classes are held at  thorpe and co  newcastle and each month we are taught different skills and functions our machines can do decorative stitches couching the simple stunning difference a triple needle can make to an ordinary stitch how to put an invisible zipper in and how to do cording it was a great project and it was alot of fun playing with the machine i hope your hands are working on something that you love Ciao Googy Girl
