Motivate Me Friday #10 - Sneak Peek

It's been 10 weeks since the countdown began. Have I accomplished anything? Here's a sneak peek ...

Here's a quote that makes you go hmmm ....

Life holds endless possibilities ... dreams to be achieved ... purpose to be discovered and the path to happiness to be unravelled ...

Speechless

It's toooooooo hot to talk or even do anything ... 40 degrees heat is not funny ... I'm speechless! 

I need to cool down, I am melting ... this poem might help:

When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all up hill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out.
Don't give up though the pace seems slow --
You may succeed with another blow,
Success is failure turned inside out --
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit --
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit!

Motivate Me Friday #9 - Past the Half Way Mark

OMG, the show is looming. Another 7 weeks to go till the big opening day.
No time to waste, heaps of things to do. This post is gonna be short and sweet!

Here's a quote to keep me going:
When everything seems impossible, God can make it possible, if we only believe!

Walking Foot

You've heard it all before and if you're like me, I've always wondered what it is. It seems to be something that is so clever and powerful. The sewing dictionary at Sewing Web defines a walking foot as:

"An attachment for your sewing machine that enables smoother sewing when using several layers or fabric. It provides an extra bit of hold from the top that works with the feed dogs below the fabric, pushing the fabric during the sewing process. It "walks" the fabric. It also works well with slippery fabrics that may need control not available with the feed dogs only."

This nifty gadget for your sewing machine works wonders and I just love it! Whether you're sewing thick or thin fabrics, it just makes it a breeze. Indeed, it "walks" the fabric. Thank God for walking feet!
