It looks fantastic! Glad the kitties gave their appurroval, so you can get on with the binding. Like you, when I'm on the home stretch, I'd like to just do that and nothing else. Darned housekeeping! By the way, the package is on its trek to you. <br />piecefulwendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02256164519304112032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-20497523564790501142019-12-10T06:46:05.038-08:002019-12-10T06:46:05.038-08:00Many years ago, our cat Merlin would sit at the wi...Many years ago, our cat Merlin would sit at the window watching the birds at the feeder and his little mouth would move and he'd make those funny little chirrup noises, and we'd laugh and laugh ... until the day he pounced THROUGH the window.

My machine loves it right up until it doesn't, sometimes mid-spool. Usually it's darker colors that break for me and I figured it was because the dyes weaken the cotton? Maybe that white dye is really bad, ha!Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06306854459459257368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-74051438584013852442019-12-10T01:00:55.171-08:002019-12-10T01:00:55.171-08:00Despite all of the hype of how wonderful Aurifil t...Despite all of the hype of how wonderful Aurifil thread is, I've had a lot of problems with it breaking just using it as a "piecing" thread.
