Plunging, and draining, means no stitching!!
However, I do have some stitching to show you today anyway. I've started working on another hussif (I know, I can hear the collective groan from here). This one is black with white stitching (and a teeny little bit of red here and there), and I'm trying to come up with as many sewing themed patterns to use on it as I can.
Here's the progress so far...
(the 'blob' of white on the lower left
is a piece of tracing paper with my
next pattern I'll be stitching)
Today your quote is from Alice Walker... "No person is your friend who demands your silence, or denies your right to grow"
I have a great little gizmo which uses water to unclog and has saved me much time and plumbing costs. Let me know if you want to know more and I'll find it and get the name etc.
ReplyDeleteOoooh, love the black and white!
ReplyDeleteHussifs are great! and new projects are fun, not to mention inspiring, share more please. You won't hear me fussing about that ever.
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love the sewing theme stitching! So sorry about the plumbing problem; glad you got it fixed! Dawn
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about the blocked drains.... never an easy problem to solve, so glad you got it sorted! I love the new hussif design.... the sewing machine is especially lovely! Christine x
ReplyDeleteHussifs are always a delight.Love the black and white.It's nice for a change from bright colour isn't it.
ReplyDeleteHorrible drains.
Great quote! I just love seeing which ones you will share. So sorry about the drain issues. Your hussif is off to a fantastic start! Love the color scheme.
ReplyDeleteFirst, Terry being a retired maintenance man from a local large complex suggests a declogger thingy that you put to the drain and pull the gun like trigger that puts a powerful burst of air down the drain. He swears by it. I, on the other hand, go by the ounce of prevention theory and use one of those plastic barbed things that you put down the drain to keep the BEARD hair out...never ANY of my blonded graying locks, lol.
ReplyDeleteIs that white on black fabric hard to see?

How can you go wrong with black and white with a touch of red...tres chic.
ReplyDeleteNice header too.
Love your white on black stitching and am excited to see your newest hussif come to fruition.
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful quote and one I can say honestly is quite accurate. Lovely rest of the week dear...
No groan from me re your lovely new hussif....I always love to see what 'craziness' you are adding to your creations. As for your drainage problems, glad they are all sorted.
ReplyDeleteno groans here about your creative choices but plenty of sympathetic groans for your blockage issues....
ReplyDeleteI really like the black and white...very effective:)
ReplyDeleteThis looks interesting and different. pretty stitching.
ReplyDeleteI like black and white, white and white, and neutral colored projects, but I have a hard time working on them. I get bored and have to add just a touch of color, and then it isn't a neutral colored project anymore.
