I have three more pieces to encircle, then it will be on to figuring out the next step
it's been fun creating all of these -- each little beaded surround with little "handles" at each end like casserole dishes so they can be strung together with other pieces (think paper chains from your childhood -- that's the basic idea I have in mind for the making up)
I have afghan squares for Close Knit Hugs and mittnz and hatz for the Cheyenne River Reservation that are ready to be packed into boxes and shipped off
I hope to get the packing up done today so these can head off to their destinations on Monday
my daughter picked up this flannel -- I will be making it into a pair of PJ pants for Mr Cute
you may recall my talking about this little Rube Goldberg contraption that I did so I could finish a prior sewing project
yesterday afternoon I took the machine to the local Viking sewing center because I could not get the replacement light bulb to work
she tried -- same result -- which means for sure it has to go in and be officially serviced -- meaning it will cost at least $75, and will be away from me for a while
not happening right now -- sorry
so this morning I ordered this from Amazon
because my machine's casing is plastic and because it has a little mini-computer inside, I can not use anything magnetic around it
this little LED light is free standing and runs on a single AAA battery (a size that I have rechargeables for)
I'm hoping this will get me through the Christmas sewing season, then the machine can go in to the shop in January and get a good going over
time to get busy -- lots to do

May your light so shine that you may continue to do many good works on that machine.
