Did you transfer the pattern on your background before stabilizing the outer edges with zig zag and adding basting for the registration markings?<br />I spend a good deal of time looking at the Y.group conversations. that too has many choices on how to proceed. Now to decide.<br />I know once I get past this part there will be no stopping me and I will be entranced. this may be why I am dragging my feet now!<br />So happy I joined in. its all so exciting and nice to share the experience with so many.<br />SuzanneY,New Yorksuzanne, dutchess county NYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09970449875090818639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8113183995005359036.post-22883320349415184832014-04-06T09:18:03.359+10:002014-04-06T09:18:03.359+10:00Morning Esther, I can not plan even a day ahead i...Morning Esther, I can not plan even a day ahead in my family, i learnt at a very early stage in my marriage don't plan on any thing, my hubby is an aircraft engineer and its like been married to a GP get ready to go out and the phone rings its an emergency , and your husband disappears for an hour or a day or a week????? It is worse now all my boys are married and living close I have them and their children wanting Mum or Gran but I would have it no other way. What I do try now is not to start any new projects and try and work on finishing at least one of my WIP's each year!!!!!! But your designs are so beautiful it is very difficult to do that LOL.

I have several different projects on the go, so if I feel like doing handwork or machine work, I've a project to suit my mood.<br />The downside is trying to keep the materials for each project organised - and it takes longer to finish anything. I use labelled plastic bags, but even these can hide themselves in my workroom!Sue Jenningshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08015468150942480159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8113183995005359036.post-86409683921502900872014-04-02T15:45:57.032+11:002014-04-02T15:45:57.032+11:00I seem to bank back and forth according to deadlin...I seem to bank back and forth according to deadline!
