      "Back to sewing, just wanted to share the picture with you guys! (well, snack, sweep/mop, then sew....)"

      Ha, that will soon change to: sew, snack, sew, snack, sew, sew, clean, sew.... "what's for dinner mum"..... 'A QUILT!' Welcome to the club Heather. You look so happy in that photo with your new best friend. Hope you have as much fun as I do.

              many thanks, everyone! Rita, you were so timely in your reminder about the bobbin, so I peeked every single time I put on a new bit to sew and by carefully checking, managed to change bobbins before that row of holes Thank you!!! You are right, that fabric gets in the way and blocks the bobbin from view, darn it! LOL!

              I am having so much fun. Just since Friday I've gone from 160 individual triangles to pairing them all up to now, Sunday morning, they are all in their neat little rows --- 4 rows of 20 pair each. And that is just sewing in the found moments here and there, not yet neglecting my family duties......(emphasis on the word "yet"). Amazing!! That would have been 5 or 6 FULL days of sewing when I was working by hand. I am stunned. And it is so fun!!!!

              Off to a morning at the park with my family, but tonight I hope to join the 4 rows so I can do the hand applique and then attach this section to the 2 already done and this quilt top will be finished!!! Next week, I'll quilt it!! Hard to imagine!!!
