Today was a good day of sewing, made some more of those Santa ornaments, added a binding for a customer, plus basted and started quilting the last customer quilt of the year! While I was doing some of this I was on hold with the post office, starting a claim for a late delivery on an international package. 51 minutes! Needless to say, I spent a couple minutes to do the survey at the end and told them, they really need more options on their menu. It only took a few minutes to get help once I got to the right department.
A word of warning regarding rolling your binding on a long tube like a paper towel. Can you see how the edge of this binding is rippling? I ended up re-pressing it and it was fine, but I don't think I would have been happy with it if I hadn't taken that time.
As far as the most impactful class I have taken, I guess I would have to say it was the free motion quilting class I took with Cathy Sandbach. She really inspired me to try new designs, and to be more confident in my quilting choices. I do have to say that every class I have taken has inspired me in one way or another. I've learned great tips, gotten good ideas for working with color, and just had fun working on a project. I highly encourage everyone to take classes!
Tomorrow is another good sewing day - I have my list ready and hope to get lots done!
