Thank you for all the warm wishes on my longarm acquistion. I've laughed out loud reading the names you've given to yours! You are some creative stitchers.
In honor of the Pet Project Show, I stylized a couple of our pets in thread up above--a llama and a dachsund.
My first finish is this little test run. The front looks pretty good, but the back has some lingering issues with tension. It's time to dig deeper into my manual and online, and fine tune before I start a real piece.
Black fabric with red thread is not the most photogenic. Close up you get a decent picture, but stand away and you have problems. Anyone have advice to offer?
I'm off to a talk by a ruler designer for Creative Grids today. I'm told she'll have a little trunk show, too, and I'm looking forward to meeting her.
In the meantime, on with our party! I invite you to add as many links as you've posted over the past week. If you've posted 3 times since last Saturday, you can link all three. You're not limited to just one, so show them all off! And I've enabled voting, so we can all vote for our top 3 choices. I think it will be fun to see the 3 winners next week.

Hi Julie
When you're ready for your first paying customer, let me know. Your doodles are just fabulous! I hope that you and Axel have a long and happy relationship!
Pugs and kisses,

You are off to a roaring star with the new quilting set-up!!
Black? I thought it was green! On to the important stuff. Looks like you are having fun with your new toy. Your doodling looks great. Off to a trunk show and ruler demo, I want to go too!
Okay, so clearly you have the ability to draw...these are jaw-dropping fantastic Julie, more so as this is your first piece?!!! I love your doxie girl, love the llama! Your swirls and doodling are wonderful...and THEN the owl beside the tree?!! um...no words. Well, one: amazing.
