I'm *still* ploughing my way through the school uniforms! I cant go very far from the machine as (a) very occasionally the machine gets hungry and tries to eat a sweatshirt, and (b), although each one only takes 6 minutes to embroider I need to trim the threads on the one that has just finished and hoop the next one, which leaves just 3 or 4 minutes free before I need to set up the next one.
So I need an easy project, that requires no planning or thinking, and that I can leave as often as I like and come back to easily. Today's multitasking was selvedge edges. I have a drawer full of them, so I've joined similar lengths together.
Not sure what I'm going to do with them next, but together with all these
and the lovely Pinterest (https://uk.pinterest.com/slikstitches/selvedge-inspiration/) I'm sure I can get some good ideas
In the meantime - I have some more of these to do!
I started this blog for me - it expanded to show BFF Jackie what I was doing - and a few others have invited themselves too - everybody welcome! Mostly about patchwork, with random comments about embroidery, family and life in general, come on in, put your feet up, and I'll put the [virtual] kettle on.
