The last one for me, I was using some Coats & Clarks & had a small keeper on my spindle instead of the larger one. The thread caught on that little 'nick' in the spool where you put it so it doesn't unspool in storage (yes, an old spool!). Stopped me in my tracks! I had to unthread the machine & put the spool on 'upside down' so it wouldn't catch again. But, I was eventually successful, just as you were. Yay us.<br /><br />Very nice shots from the bird cam. I didn't know that purple finches were really red. You are always teaching me new stuff!

My husband was given a bird spotters book for his birthday and we discovered one of our visitors today was a bullfinch :)Celtic Thistlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07033484481693226138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-22535188009734980452014-03-25T07:52:07.851-07:002014-03-25T07:52:07.851-07:00I certainly understand not being able to surrender...I certainly understand not being able to surrender to the thread! The chili peppers are looking pretty darn tasty. I don't know if I should thank you for reminding me about the RSC as I have absolutely no time to make my block this month and I'm not happy with the block I chose to do anyway and feel like I need to start over so... procrastination seems like the best course here.Dogwood Lane Rambleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11325307035803155779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-10002286803602775692014-03-25T05:42:03.907-07:002014-03-25T05:42:03.907-07:00Your chili table topper is so California - lol!

Of course, when I go off the rails, I don't even get any sewing done so you are still an over achiever in my book! Love the peppers and the birds. :)gpchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18054854655973836794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-32110823780577790022014-03-25T03:58:06.118-07:002014-03-25T03:58:06.118-07:00The Chili Rounder came out beautifully.

That's one of the reasons I'm not big on applique, I've had thread problems every time I've tried to make a piece, no matter what machine I've used. <br /><br />Love your birdie pictures. I'd say we've not see our new arrivals, but we haven't been home long enough to just sit and watch them.
