sorry this morning ran away and hid!! I took medication last night and slept through till 8.30, by the time we were showered, dressed and had our breakfast the cleaner was here.
Many years ago I had a fight with using metallic thread in my machine, it hated it and it was such a diva I stopped using metallic thread......however a request from DGS's partner for the snowflakes in silver I decided to shut myself away and have a go. By fair means, or foul, I have managed to do three without too many problems, will do the rest tomorrow. Metallic thread kinks as it comes off the reel and can cause untold trouble by twisting and knotting. I managed to mackle up a system which has allowed me to do the three with only a couple of thread breaks........ so well pleased.
Once I have done the other 3 I am going to tackle shortening the Christmas table cloth which was made for the much bigger dining table, I am going to use the excess fabric to make some new Christmas table mats....watch this space.
Supper is bacon frittata and salad, we have apple and rhubarb crumble to finish off from yesterday.
