Hi everybody. If you tried to read any of my blogs in the past five days or so you would not have been able to. I had a technical failure related to automatic updating of security certificates and programs. Oh it was miserable. I spent hours in discussion with the technical people for days! We finally identified the problem and got it fixed just yesterday afternoon! So I’m happy I can move forward again in this great adventure. I admit that I was a little concerned my blogs had been lost for good, but not so. Now I have a zip file of my entire blogs from the beginning through the last post. This is a good thing, because I have been writing a book and using the information I put out in many of my blogs as part of it and I only just started pulling that together.

Storm at Sea…seems appropriate for this past week. LOL
In addition, I just decided to abandon the “Painting on Quilts” project because I had too many problems of one kind or another related to painting the quilts and filming at the same time. It just wasn’t meant to be, so I am picking my next projects and moving forward. Today I am working out where I go from here. I have a myriad of ideas and partially started projects, but not one is ready to video yet, so I will have to get to work! LOL…and it will be fun, whichever direction I go I am sure and will involve thread and fabric!
Sew what can we learn from this? Sometimes it is the thing to do to abandon a project. Sometimes you have to plow through a problem until it is solved. Starting a new project will be fun but I think also need some short things of interest to do and write about and video for you all while I work on the long things.
Sew happy everyone! Have fun in your studio!
Whenever thread and fabric is involved so is fun! I’m sure you learned a lot from the project and sometimes that is enough. . .we don’t have to complete every project we begin!
Hi Terry, You are so right on all your points. I am having fun today working out the next steps and doing some work on my “stitch library” where I am testing out stitches and threads for future projects.
