My week has been focused on my annual basement deep clean. I was beyond happy to finish it yesterday. I even had some time left to finish up the 2 veterans quilts. This one was made by Peg.

She’s been focused on making quilts from her scrap bins and this is a very pretty one.
I think the next one was made by Karen. She gave us several tops at the last meeting. This looks like another successful scrap quilt.

I have 2 more veterans tops to quilt but I’m going to do my Trailside quilt next.
As to the new, I took Mom to pick up her sewing machine from the repair shop. While there I bought myself a new travel machine.

My Gem Gold is almost 30 years old and is pretty worn out. I did some test sewing and love the stitch quality and was very excited to see that it has an integrated walking foot.

I haven’t had the luxury of an integrated walking foot since my old 7550. I’m looking forward to giving this machine a workout at the next club sewing days.
Early Merry Christmas to me!
