Quilting

Today is a quilting day - until I head off for work (the hourly rate of pay type of work, yep I do work!).


I am starting to feel a little more settled with the Bernina 820 and can now function it in the most basic of ways.   One of the features that I am really loving is the bobbin warning.  A warning light starts flashing when the bobbin is down to its last 20% of capacity, and slowly decreases.


This warning ensures I won't be running out of bobbin thread in the middle of a quilting an edge to edge straight line, thereby limiting time with the seam ripper.


Enjoy your weekend - by the way it is a huge weekend in Melbourne - the AFL Grand Final!  Football isn't really my thing, but if it is yours, I hope your team wins.
