Bobbins and Bobbins - Off the Wall Friday

How can it be Friday already?  I really need to start only budgeting a couple of hours of sewing each night.  Once I start on that third hour my eyes start glazing over and I start thinking of bed.  Is there such as a thing as asleep at the machine?

I did manage to get a bunch of thread work done on my latest piece.  So far I've gone through 3 - count them 3 full Bottom Line Bobbins.  You know you can fit a lot of thread on a bobbin using Bottom Line.  Not to mention, I'm only about half done.  I really am enjoying doing it though  - I always forget how much I love just free motion quilting.

Plus this time I got to use my new snazzy machining gloves - which are a lot lighter than my gardening one  (go figure!)  That was one of the better $8 I've spent lately.  It makes it so much easier to move the piece around.  The only thing I wish I had bought the X-tra small instead of the Small/Mediums - they're just a bit big!

As you can tell, I'm putting off the final decision on what exactly I'm going to do about the season situation.  I got so many good ideas from everyone - a big Thank You.  The only thing I can tell you right now is that I decided not to do any tulle - not so much because it wouldn't have made a nice value change - but putting it over so much of the barn I wasn't quite sure how it would effect the texture.  With the deadline so close I didn't feel like experimenting.

So by Monday the suspense should be over and we can find out exactly what I decide together!
