But my tension problems virtually disappeared when I switched to Janome's blue bobbin holder for quilting.

I hope you feel really proud of how far your skills have come and all that you've accomplished along the way!

I have no doubt that it was an incredible ordeal, and that quilting was therapeutic. I have found that so when I've had a life concern. Isn't it amazing to know we have a strong God to lean on, even when we question what the future holds? It's so great that your faith kicked in and that you can reflect on your blessings. Stuff like this makes all of us appreciate life and little things a whole lot more. Bless you, and your husband and children now and always.

I originally found you via Leah Day - also a very inspirational young lady. I also have your Craftsy classes and slowly making progress - just finished a quilt for my daughter (well the top) and aim to do plenty of ruler work with that for practice. I have an old Janome 6500 and only now is it being put through it's paces. Frustrating at times with lots of needle/tension practice too! I'll get there in the end. xxxxKerryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00237828174807811725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3445986501162780215.post-5541071343437319652017-03-24T19:34:02.973-04:002017-03-24T19:34:02.973-04:00I've followed your blog almost from the start,...I've followed your blog almost from the start, and you've been a source of inspiration to me.
