i ran out of thread!

the duvets arrived earlier this week, so i finished all the rotary cutting of the strips and sat at the bernina for the first time in years. it still purrs like keety.

single duvet top #1 is assembled and most of the seams are faux-serged at the back so they don't fray all over the place. however, i have run out of sewing-weight thread and must go out and replenish if work is to continue.

i am obsessed. must go.

w00t!

My mom was constantly sewing but never had a serger so we were always recruited to do the mindless over-locking. She/we never skipped it and, for what little sewing that I do now I always over-lock around the pieces.

I can't wait to see it done!
