MUSICAL SEWING MACHINE

We all have heard or even played musical chairs before....

Well...I am playing musical sewing machines.

Here is my Pfaff....I loved this machine but it causes me grief.  Terrible straight stitch...

but

I can blanket stitch and free motion quilt without too much worry.

Then here is my embroidery machine.  It does do the blanket stitch but is too much hassel to do so.  Those who know me know that take my blanket stitch away and I would go crazy.

This machine does a wonderful straight stitch and I just learned today how to free motion quilt on it.
                                                  We are getting closer.

 I borrowed this Pfaff from my mother and it only likes cotton threads, top and bottom.  Then to my dismay it does not do a blanket stitch.  So there it sits.

Why don't I take my machine to the shop?

I want to

but I have things to do...things to get done.  So for right now I go between the two machines

and sometimes pull my hair out.

I found this panel and decided to quilt it up.

Oh my stinking gosh....if I could just keep the threads from breaking on both machines.

I am nearly bald.....(smiling)

Then I made this baby changing pad.  It has a fleece backing.

I attached an elastic band on the side to wrap around the pad when it is folded in half and rolled up.

If I were to make another one, I think I will encase the elastic with fabric..
