Watch this space...

Today I put a deposit on a new sewing machine!!!!!!!!!!  I'm so excited!!!!!  The only pain is that I have to wait till the end of the month for it to arrive.... :(   Ohhhh well.... that gives me till the end of the month to plan some new projects....

I have been working on a new 3D machine embroidered landscape but have hit a few snags... one being that my current machine can't cope with the thickness of my work, and the second being perspective.  With this piece (it's the bridges from several months ago, you can read about it here and here) I have 2 angles of perspective to deal with rather than single perspective of the previous pieces so I have to look and think about it differently... it's all about problem solving and thinking outside the square.

BTW it's a Bernina 430.

Can't talk now... sewing...

Hand-wind Husqvarna sewing machine that my brother and I found at a market - I love it!! 

It works but not the most efficient use of time... for serious sewing I stick with my Bernina

I'm digging out my sewing machine this morning and getting busy on the Baguette... I want to get in as much sewing as I can before I need to head to the airport to pick up my brother and his partner.  I will post pics of my progress on Monday.

Have a great weekend everyone!!
