Sunday Stash and Stitch 9-23-18

Clothing alterations still going on. My granddaughter has outgrown a lot of her clothes. I had made her a My Lil Pony top and shorts. The shorts are gone but the top did not pass the arms in the air test. School does not allow bellies to show. So instead of chucking the top I added a ruffle and some lace to the bottom. While I was at it I made her leggings.

She sent me a nice voicemail saying she loved it. I couldn't ask for more!

Some sewing on charity quilts this week. Our Guild charity sew on Wednesday set a goal to finish 350 quilts by Thanksgiving. We are going strong. So far we have 232+ quilts finished and another 100 tops in kits ready to be finished.

I had a very bad time with my Janome 6600 sewing machine on Saturday and Sunday. I will have to take it in and have it checked. I think it is at least 12 years old. While sewing using the pedal it beeps and hesitates. I am going to test in today using the auto button. I really don't want to upgrade to a new machine. I have about 8 machines in the house but this is the one I use for FMQ. Will let you know what happens.

As for my sewing and stash, my math was so off I had to fix a few posts. Somewhere I started subtracting days instead of adding them in. SMH!
Simplified it a bit so my brain does not explode. LOL!
