Thursday Update

Just a few projects finished and one a little bit of progress to report.
First project~My square for February an hourglass pattern using my new 1/4 inch foot.
Let me just say what a huge difference a quarter inch foot makes!!!!!!
My second project~ A pair of Pink P.J's using this very soft tiny ribbed knit material I picked up at Hancock's on their sale rack for 1.97 a yard.
The Pattern was McCall's Easy Stitch 'N Save #M5960
The Ribbon Black Satin by Offray. The thread Sulky 932.
My Janome hated both the thread and the fabric and that made this a difficult project even though the pattern is a piece of cake! I ended up finishing up on my Elna.  All in all I really like the end result.

Lastly, I finished all the petals for the New Beginning Flowers.
Here is the first of 20 finished, only 19 more to go before the 27th. Piece of cake right!
The tutorials  where I learned how to make these flowers can be found here and here.
Happy Valentines day to you all!

Hey thanks for being excited for me! I am thrilled. I love your flower - what a nice gift to give out at New Beginnings. The jammie's look great. I love the color! And, that's great about your new 1/4" foot! Fun! That's on my wish list!
