I told you nothing was going on around here. This is the pizza my husband got at Papa Murphy's. He likes to doctor them up with fresh veggies we have in the fridge. We have been having pizza quite a lot lately, and even though I am getting just a tad weary of the same old thing, I am grateful I don't have to cook after an 11 hour work day.
I did wander into my sewing room to wipe the dust off my Bernina. When is my Prairie Paisley quilt going to get done? It is my project for the Charming Girls Quilt Club, and the deadline is Friday!
I am SO close to being finished. Just four hours should do it. Where will I find them? Shall I do an all nighter like back in my college days?

OMG too funny – I was going to write and ask when we were going to see your pizza!

Either I need to step on it or you can relax. I thought that the photos for the Charming Girls Club was the 7th of the month? Yikes!

Will it be a pleasure to quilt if you pull an all-nighter just to get it finished? Is this a hobby or an obsession? Sometimes I wonder about myself. Sometimes we need to step back and figure out how things are. And your health and your love for family and dogs comes first. 11 hour workdays are enough!!!!!!!

I, too, work long days most of the year. I’ve learned to work in small increments – even 15 min. to 30 minutes. You’d be surprised what you can get done. Most important, I get that “working with fabric fix” that keeps me from getting grumpy and full of self-pity!

Me, too…explain the blue tape. I understand it is for different measurements. So…measuring what and where? How do you get it “true”? It seems that it would interfere with the raising/lowering/opening of the machine.

I finished a quilt at 4:00 AM! I didn’t have to get up this morning though. You’d be surprised what an all nighter will do for your spirits! If you only do one, you’ll maybe survive, but more may just kill you. We’re not 20 anymore!!!

I too am wondering what you use the blue tape for???? And whatever the purpose is, did you come up with the idea yourself, or is it a trick that you learned from a class perhaps??

Oh, I forgot I had another question ! Did your daughter remove her blog? I’ve tried to access her blog for the last several days and I get a “webpage cannot be found” mesage…Any solutions/answers for me?

The deadline is Friday? Well I know this for sure. If anyone CAN DO IT (well) – you can. I’d place my money on it.

Eleven hour work days sounds dreadful. What kind of job do you do?

All nighter after eleven hour work day is a NO NO. Get some sleep.

I can’t wait to see it finished. I love the fabric. Turn on the telly, turn on the tea kettle and get to stitching!!! You’ll be finished in no time.
By the way, what is the light you have on your machine? Light is always a problem. I have a small Ott light but it never seems to be in the right spot to focus the light right where I want it. It looks like you have solved that problem.
