Hi Nancy!
-=> Quoting Nancy Bird to Wendy Buchanan <=-
NB> And welcome back! Congrats on the income, too!
Thanks, it *does* seem strange not to discuss every dollar
spent like it was our last--sometimes, it almost was!
NB> It's always a relief to finally get a source of income, isn't it? they ordered it. It's so nice - because I can sit around in my grubby
NB> clothes, don't have to worry about parking, buying lunches, office
NB> clothes, can call my hub for FIDO, read my e-mail, and still make the
NB> calls. I don't go anywhere much, so this is perfect for me, and brings
NB> me in some cash, to boot. I'm very satisfied, and thank Him for it!
I guess--I'd just be thankful for no panty hose! And if you
want a cup of coffee and a potty break, you can take them
without feeling guilty. How neat!
NB> How soon before you can hit the craft stores?
I've been, today, but didn't buy anything. I do have some things
sort of "tagged" in my mind, though!
You won't believe what happened with the first quilt I tried to do
on the machine. It was a wall hanging one, and the bobbin wasn't
wound properly and the machine bounced all over the table. The
result was a series of knots and zigzags where none were supposed
to be, and it was a total loss. Had to make my SIL another
Christmas present, fast!
I made her some hand-stamped stationery, a pair of polar fleece
socks, and crocheted her 3 dishcloths. I was up all night for 3
nights, but at least I had alternatives this time.
I will not do another quilt on a "deadline," believe me! And I
think that sewing machine is too lightweight to do much quilting
anyhow. It really bounced all over--it was quite a ride! hehe
LadyBear Hugs,
Wendy
