(I even tested a pattern for her long time ago and got 'paid' in fabric! Great deal!) If anyone is interested in seeing her items, go to www.starrfabrics.com She lives about 30 minutes from me. So just supporting a small-town business!UptownConniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12131628588566695752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-52249394445438536112021-01-12T13:48:58.778-05:002021-01-12T13:48:58.778-05:00Pam, you didn't ask for opinions, but I sure h...Pam, you didn't ask for opinions, but I sure hope you keep some sort of little setup for sewing.

I'm guessing that you like being home more than youu thought you would and I that you are enjoying your productivity! I think opening the retreat center was perfect way for you to transition to being home and still teaching on occasion. I hope 2021 is blessed beyond measure for you and all of your followers!!Melodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15517573600663959175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-61197357368937726602021-01-12T12:42:44.895-05:002021-01-12T12:42:44.895-05:00I would love to use my treadle.

But I have to close up my sewing room for about a month or so until we get my spare bedroom (next to new bathroom) where my kitchen is currently located - moving kitchen to my sewing room -- I don't know how I will get by without sewing for a month -- may have to keep the featherweight set up!!!

Good quality, sturdy fabric. The ties are long enough to wrap around and tie in front. It isn't a skimpy little thing--there is good coverage to protect your clothes, and it has a quilt block on it.

I'm looking forward to sewing together my first block tomorrow but now I must get some work done (not retired yet). Bonnie, it's so fun to see what's happening in your nook of the US and see what you're sewing. You are an inspiration and a grateful diversion to current events.

Have it webbed, but after the 6” of snow yesterday...yes, in central Texas!!, it was too cold to work on it. My machine sits right in front of an 6’x6’ old window that is rather drafty. Way too cold to sew there yesterday. Today, the sun is out off and on, so I’m waiting for the next rays to hit, and I’m heading to the machine.

My brothers and I slept in it as well as my cousins, my own children and one of my grandchildren. Since then it has been loaned out well over one hundred times. It is currently not in use for a baby but is stashed with my daughter in another state. Once Covid lifts I am going to go get my new "scrap basket!<br />TrulyBlessedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10591999468956139420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-53220652140722188442021-01-11T13:14:17.298-05:002021-01-11T13:14:17.298-05:00Want to quilt - work on Grassy Creek - but need ...Want to quilt - work on Grassy Creek - but need to get the poodle groomed today, so energy for quilting may be scarce!
