So So Week
This week has been a blah week. Not only with the weather, overcast and wet and cold. But also with the sewing.
My Halloween embroidery quilt got finished. Take a look at the top right hand block. I used a yellow, orange and red crayon to color in around the moon and witch. I was trying to mask the fact that when I washed out the transfer ease the thread bled . I used two different skeins of thread, so it did not happen with all the blocks, only two of them. I tried Synthropol and I also tried a color catcher. Neither helped. I ended up giving it to a friend for her to quilt for a charity or crisis quilt. I new every time I would look at it I would see The black wave of color.
Just a close up of crayon work.Now a little bit of Farmer's wife to show off...
This week I also went thru my yearly mammogram, everything fine. It is breast cancer awareness month. I also had a colonoscopy, everything fine there also. Please do what you can to keep yourself healthy!
