Sewing

this morning I started in the craft room  I wanted to finish those hand towels 

The machine was giving me grief so I pulled out the new cheap one from Aldi. 

I got it organised on the dining room table and started to wind a bobbin for it 

I realised that the quilting machine wasn’t winding the bobbin properly. 

After finishing the towels I wound some bobbins on the new machine and I’ll see if that makes any difference. If it does I’ll buy one of those small bobbin winder thingies

That’s the technical word for it 



My machine all ready to go 

I need to find a name for her. 

My quilting queens name is Elly elna 

Yeah not really original. But I do like it 

Since I bought this at Aldi I think I need an old fashioned name starting with A 

Suggestions welcome 


The four hand towels are done 

The have chickens on them, not that you can see them right now  

They will match these 


I also have one long mat in the set 

Even though my chickens will be far away safe at home, I’ll still think them while I’m away 

After all that I vacuumed all the tiled floors and moped them. 

I still need to vacuum all the living areas. I’ve got the vacuum out and that’s where it’s staying right now 

I need a rest 

I’ve been cutting my expensive meds by half. The doctor was happy about that. Unfortunately the pain is now constantly breaking through the barrier 

It’s still way less than before the medication, but definitely can feel the difference 

I’m on 12 tablets a day!

So cutting two out has to be better for me. 

Included in that number are the vitamin D and melatonin tablets. I hope to only need those for a few months. 

I feel like I’m rattling as I walk around 

The situation will be monitored and if I have to up the meds I will. 

I guess we will see
