Loaded -

 

 

First the backing for my RED Squirrel - 

If it looks a bit "light" to you - 

It's because I have to load it with the WRONG side up - 

 

 

Then I loaded and basted the batting and the quilt top - 

I changed the thread to RED - 

And changed from the open-toe foot to the ruler foot - 

In case I want/need to use it - 

Tomorrow I'll test the tension - 

 

I want to do something "curvy" in the "flowers" - 

 

And some lines in the "background" strips - 

 

I need to decide if I want to try to use the channel locks - 

To give me nice straight lines - 

That would also show any and all of my "crooked" seams - 

 

Or use a ruler to stitch straight lines - 

The ruler would help me "fudge" the lines if needed -  

 

Or go with some wavy lines instead -

Free-hand - no channel locks or rulers -  

They would be more "organic" - 

What do you think? -

 

Should I try the channel locks? - 

 

Or a ruler? -

 

Or simply stitch some free-hand wavy lines? - ;))

 

 

 

Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
