Hi Cuties, I can’t believe we are only 5 days away till Christmas.
I think going away last week and having a busy time just gone these past 3 days has made me realise once more how time is flying by so fast.
I’ve sewn a couple of FSL designs over the weekend that should have only taken an hour or so to sew out, (especially the bells) but I had so many thread breakages. I used a new spool of thread and new needle, but the Brother doesn’t like FSL too much.
I’ve just had my Husqvarna serviced. It had gold thread wrapped around the tension disc and cogs!!! No wonder it wouldn’t stitch!!
Anyway these are Tereza’s designs from Embroidery byTM. A set of 2 bells and another Snowflake fairy.
We are all off to Ben and Mia’s for Christmas Day - can’t wait as I’ve been doing Christmas lunch for ever!!!!
Merry Christmas to you all and I pray that some of you can be with your families. 2021 has to get better.
Love Chris
234505Beautiful and the ornaments on your tree display are outstanding. Sorry that you had a lot of breakage. I found that occasional my Brother dislikes a bobbin and I will have lots of breakage. Of course I do the needle changing and cleaning out the bobbin case first,

Hi Kim, yes, Covid is certainly rearing its ugly head. There have been some cases reported in the northern beaches of Sydney and Central coast. They are doing tracing all the time. We have been pretty fortunate in Australia as borders have been closed between the states stopping the virus from spreading.
We will have a wonderful day on Christmas day, it will be very noisy I know!!!!! Love Chris

I check my tension discs frequently too, a cog is part of the mechanism that makes the wheels turn round - they have little teeth like projections on them. Love Chris
18140Lovely work. Hope your plans don't get cancelled with the new Lock Downs happening at the moment.

We're very fortunate here in Newcastle, no Covid. I've got friends down in Melbourne and in Sydney who are going to have a very quiet Christmas. Love Chris
