isn't it cute! it's phoebe's phirst little patchwork square; a 3" done in civil war fabrics for a new little quilt. i also worked some on my batik pinwheel runner and am simply thrilled with this little machine. though it doesn't have the power or the stitch variety of the old viking, its stitch is second to none. phoebe still smells a bit musty, as does the case, but i'm leaving it open and phoebe on the table to air them out. the fabric softener sheet helped quite a bit, so i'll give it a second try. **** the sun is up and i've things to do before returning to work tomorrow for a short day. i find i get so much more done knowing that endless free time is no longer available. **** quilting along on the amish pinwheel, hoping for an april finish. after that i'm going to try and finish a stack of the smaller things, plus i've also taken up a couple of cross-stitch projects on linen--you know, vintage, antique-y looking things; good summer stitching projects.
Glad Phoebe has made you happy with her work.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe that you are taking up some cross-stitch projects besides all of your other WIPs. You are one driven woman!
