A very good day

Sun in a right angled circle. What?  Well have a look and note how the but of sun sits in a semicircle that is squared off. 

This afternoon Kathy and I went to Embroidery club at Tom's. It was off to a slow start for me as the teacher had trouble downloading the design to my stick. Why ? I don't know why but eventually I got the design and started on my embroidery. There was no teaching going on but I had Kathy who knows everything about embroidery . She did finish hers. I notice that most of the machines at the club are all huge embroidery machines with many, many designs and lots of extras. They are amazing. I also noticed that several of the ladies had upgraded from the 10,000 to the 11,000 and so on to the 15,000. Amazing, those machines are very expensive. One lady told me that was the reason she worked - to buy her embroidery machine updates and supplies. Her machine is a 15,000 and is a fabulous piece of work. My tiny 350E pales in comparison. But it does do a very good job of embroidery despite being very slow compared to the other machines whose needles are jumping up and down at a great rate of speed.  However I am not in a race when working at home but at the club I am so slow and never get my design done in the time allowed. 

Today's design was a  hot pad I think. It came from emblibrary. I need to check and see what it is called.  

The group is called In The Hoop and the sub group is called Trivet.

Speaking of emblibrary, my lacy bookmarks are featured on the site today. Here they are...

I did not get mine done unfortunately but maybe tomorrow.

Emblibrary gives instructions so that will help.

After the class Kathy brought me home. I made perogies and bacon for dinner. It was great. I put ketchup on mine, Ray always uses ketchup. I never use ketchup and never have but tonight I did and it was delicious with the perogies.
