Above is my view, ongoing.
And below is the just out of view. I made it to page seven in the introduction of one of them last night. Had to look up quite a number of words, oh those wacky folks of the late 19th century!
Bobbin #3
Well a tough afternoon for staying focused. Let’s just say there were some outside distractions and let it go at that.
But here I am a few lines of stitching into bobbin #3.

Back to work
Took a spell off to see my long-time co-worker Doug off after his last day at work at the FruitStand. There was some unexpected dishing and it was odd to be thrown into a loud, work-related thing after being on my own for a few days.
This morning there was a patch of sunlight and it was warm enough to sit on the front steps and drink my coffee without being cold. I listened to the wind and the birds and enjoyed the sun on my face. The rhody was all unfurled and leathery, it’s leaves tapping to the breeze. As I finished my cup, the clouds covered the sun, the temperature dropped and it was a warm but February day again.
Now I’m determined to make some progress in quilting.

Nothing like a thread problem. Tension gone bad. Try again. Try again. Try again (rethreading each time etc). Stop. Clean. Work on practice piece. Same. Thread a bit of a new bobbin. Same. Put different thread on top. No problem.
Ok then. Cotton thread that is hanging a bit coming off the spool I think. No time for that.
