I got my baby back!

I picked up my sewing machine last Monday after we got back from Myrtle Beach. They said the reason the feed dogs were acting up is because too much lint had built up! I clean my machine after every project but I can only reach the area around the bobbin case. With a Pfaff you need to take it in for a service cleaning to get deep down inside and obviously it was time!! She’s working great now 🙂

Unfortunately I didn’t get much sewing in this week – we had friends stop by for a few days who were traveling from FL to MD and we’re about the halfway point. Before they arrived, I finished fusing the stabilizer to tshirts for the commissioned tshirt quilt I’m making but didn’t start piecing them together until our friends left.

I played with the layout until I got the colors pretty well balanced – there are a lot of white shirts.

I started trimming and piecing last night and hope to have the top put together by tomorrow morning because we have more friends coming in to visit tomorrow afternoon. They’re staying until Wed and I’ve taken time off from my day job so I should be able to get it done. The client hasn’t decided on the backing yet so I guess there’s no real hurry.

Other than this, I haven’t sewn anything!

I’ve been sticking to my daily workout regimen and even ran with my running buddies yesterday!! We’re all signed up for the July 4th – 4 miler so I know I’ll get to run with them again soon but hopefully we can plan a few more weekend meetups before that.

Sunday 6/11:

Cardio: 30 min beginner HIIT video

Strength: 10 min ABS video

Stretching: 15 mins

That’s all for now…let me know what’s happening where you are!
