Back in the saddle
I actually got to do some sewing this weekend! yippee! I was feeling a
little stir crazy. Sunday I started embroidering some towels for Christmas gifts. It was fairly easy to thread the machine with one hand. Today, I started back on the QU paper piecing class. I worked for an hour and only got one block done. I had to cut everything with templates and scissors, because I can't use the rotary cutter yet. But I did get one block done. Maybe with a little steady work this week, I can get started on catching up. Using the machine isn't difficult and I'm starting to get a little proficient in pinning without using my index finger. Cutting is my only problem at this point. But I'm sure I'll eventually figure that one out too while my finger heals. Maureen

It was pretty rough and painful for awhile, but I'm feeling loads better
now. Maureen Marcella Tracy Peek wrote: Glad to hear you're on the mend! marcella In article , Maureen Wozniak wrote: I actually got to do some sewing this weekend! yippee!
