I'm still sans my sewing machine. Steve told me I should take a break from sewing every now and then.
This past week I didn't do anything, until Friday night.
When you don't have a machine, what do you do? Cut out a future project.
I washed and ironed my fabric for my
Amazon Star. Then I started cutting for the quilt.
I'm not sure if you all are
familiar with
Judy Niemeyer patterns, but she includes instructions and templates for cutting out her quilts.
I knew by looking at the quilt that it would be very involved, but the cutting was proof. Eight pages of cutting instructions. Ten
ziploc bags later, I have everything cut and sorted.
I have to admit that the instructions were well written and easy to follow. The next step is to get my machine back and start sewing.
