Sunflowers #9 and #10
My machine was in the shop because it quit sewing. I picked it up Saturday. Friction ring, feed dogs and thread guides were replaced. Then it was cleaned, oiled, tuned up. Now it's almost like a new machine. Since the month seems like it's about half over I thought I better work on my One Monthly Goal (OMG) and make two Sunflowers. Now I can mark that off the list.
While the machine was in the shop I did a lot of fabric cutting both with scissors and with rotary cutter and also did some hand quilting which seemed to cause some problems with my fine motor skills. So I laid around and read and browsed seed catalogs.
My sewing machine and fingers are working now.
I THINK life is pretty much back to normal.

I've missed your regular posts. They are always so stimulating. Glad you have your machine now so normal service can be resumed!
Oh good news; i've also missed your wonderful posts...I just love these sunflowers....hugs, julierose
Those sunflowers are beautiful! Glad you and your machine are feeling much better! ---"Love"
Glad to hear things are returning to normal. Losing fine motor skills is a bit scary! The sunflower blocks are interesting, the point almost look curved. A bit of an optical delusion, I think :)
I was wondering where you were. I'm glad they could fix your machine and that you're back in business!
Glad things are getting back to normal in your world.

Glad your machine is all healthy now! And that you got your OMG done! Nice!!
I was starting to worry about you! Glad all is well now with the sewing machine. Such a bother when they don't work!
Love those sunflowers, as usual. I pulled out mine the other day and auditioned some backgrounds, but haven't gotten any further with the project. Your blocks are always a good inspiration, though! (Now I just have to finish a couple of must-do projects before i can go back to the fun stuff!)
Welcome back - we missed you. Glad to hear you’re back to normal (and your machine, too). I know how Not Fun that is! xo
Nice work on your sunflowers!
And I'm glad your hands and machine are up and running.
I just figured you had sewn up 6 or 7 new quilt tops and
were just finishing hand quilting them all.
But you and your machine got a rest instead, that's a good
thing.
