1) New design thoughts: Roman Numerals ....Your Initials.....Raindrops.....
2) I found I can cope with sewing long strips together end to end ...unless I end up with a circle. Deep breath, slowly let out......and continue on....
3) Learning color values....long way to go.....basic rule? ....dark, then light, then dark, then light,,,,, or.... dark, light, dark, dark light dark... Humm, medium has to be in there somewhere........
4) I just realized... I love dots.....................
5) Something whispered at quilting get-togethers: There are other things than quilts to make sometimes. After working on a big project for a long time, you are allowed to take a break and make a mug rug or two, or a table runner, just to feel a sense of accomplishment. Then get back to the task at hand with a fresher look.
6) Be sure to keep the top on your ripper and especially on that pointy thing you use to keep the seams under your pressure foot.....Ouch!
7) NEVER eat while sewing....especially popcorn....the buttery kind.
8) Being without internet service during storms is maddening.....to top it off.. lightening and thunder keeps my sewing machine quiet also! (unplug your machine at the wall during storms!)
9) White fabric solves so many "this won't go with that!" problems!
10) Sometimes staying in your pajamas all day is a wonderful way to feel decadent!
Love the tip list. I thought #10 was the standard outfit!lol
