It's hard work

I'm currently wrestling with putting a binding on my quilted table runner. I think my wadding is too bulky, my edges too wobbly and my machine too temperamental. It's certainly a challenge. There's bits everywhere, the ironing board is up, I'm running up and downstairs, pins all over the floor. It's not a small space hobby this. I'll keep you posted. And I've had a beer. Oh dear.

  2. I know exactly where you are coming from a sewing machine that seems to take on a life of its own at the most inopportune moment! But I'm sure the runner will look lovely when finished can't wait to see it finished, and you seem to be getting a lot of exercise!

  6. I agree with Jane and Chris. Have another beer. You'll feel better and the work won't matter.
