A Few Silly Stories

Life around here is never boring! After writing Thursday's post I headed downstairs to work on more designs and I broke my machine. Here's a video I created right after:


I figured that would be enough excitement for the week, but no...I decided Thursday night on the spur of the moment to stitch myself a new skirt. After finding this awesome set of skirt drafting tutorials from CrafttoVision, I designed and stitched a new skirt right before dinner.

I came upstairs brimming with excitement and yelled "Check out my new cool skirt!"

And Josh resplies "Who wallpapered your butt?"

Note: I seriously hope this doesn't offend Amy Butler who designed this fabric, but I literally laughed my butt off when he asked that. I absolutely love my skirt and plan to make more, wallpaper or not!

Let's go quilt!

wallpaper is in girl. Love your skirt..if i were much thinner and looked that good in a skirt I would wear it too.
As for your machine, you have a great outlook to be able to laugh and lucky you have a backup plan. Hope it doesn`t cost you too much to get it fast, your video was very cute. VBG

WOW! You broke your machine? I'd be heart broken! But it gives me a chance to see your comments about working with the HD1000. I have been considering buying either that one or the HD3000. I would love to have the Horizon, but I'm afraid it's waaaaaaay out of my budget! And , be thankful you have a back-up machine so you can keep on stichin':)

It's so cute...and you have a lovely figure! My daughter would love that skirt (I don't wear them). Hope your Horizon isn't gone too long!

Boys! Can't live with 'em can't shoot 'em! I love your skirt. Tell Josh we love him too, but he should stick to his recipes and save the fashion advice for the experts!

That is funny!

Thanks for your inspiration and the time you put into your tutorials. I am hoping to master FMQ in 2012 and started this weekend with your lesson from this week. Looking forward to learning and getting in there and practicing!
