Well, it has been quite a week. We had a wonderful time with family celebrating Easter. Monday would normally have been quilting but some of the ladies were away so it was cancelled. Hubby was getting ready for a medical procedure the next day and had to fast so I was doing what I could to help him. Tuesday, after dropping our dog off at the neighbours we drove an hour and a half to the hospital. Everything went well and the preliminary results were good. After lunch and a stop at a fabric store, we drove home. I did all the driving because of the sedatives hubby received and the fact that he had been awake most of the night. A wind storm had been predicted and I fought that all the way home. Picked up the dog and then collapse on the couch.
The wind continued through the night and I was awakened once with the sound of a loud bang. the hydro flickered on and off a few times but didn't stay off. The next morning up, have a shower and breakfast and the lights went out. They stayed off until 7 p.m. We spent the time reading and heating premade stew on the wood stove. Next day and today, all is well. We had a couple of trees come down, once just missing the driveway, but no real damage. Now I am trying to get caught up
I have just loaded a new quilt onto the long arm and am going to try out a new pantograph. I gave the machine and frame a good cleaning and check over and discovered the base of the frame was half an inch lower on one end than the other. Getting that fixed should make for easier stitching.
Today's photo is of our kitty, Ally Cat. She looked so relaxed that I had to take a picture. Wouldn't it be nice if we were all able to free our mind of all that really doesn't matter?
Blessings,
