Properly, we are moved into our new house. My husband went back to work this morning immediately after possessing quite a few days off to assist out here. It’s a bit of a relief, honestly, to have the property to myself so that I can get items unpacked. However, my husband tends to unpack a single point at a time, takes a walk down memory lane, and then gets sidetracked by one thing else. It really is not a enormous enable.
As I sit and appear about me, the kitchen is coming along nicely, but the living room is a giant mess. I need to have to set up the “library” along a single wall that is at the moment hidden by a wall of boxes. But, at the back of that stack lurks my embroidery machine. It will be my inspiration to clear that wall right now. Then, tomorrow, I can play!
In the couple of days that we’ve been right here, there have currently been a quantity of sewing-inspired accidents. Initial, I spilled an entire package of pins on the living space floor. My husband is extremely great at getting the strays with his feet, so he beat a hasty retreat even though I picked them up. Then, the movers broke the cart that houses my threads for machine embroidery, and a single of the drawers ended up on the garage floor. Not a dilemma. No, the challenge came later mainly because my husband did not know the cart was broken. He moved it and that identical drawer fell out, this time spilling a number of dozen spools on the garage floor. He was not pleased.
The greatest trouble is that I have such a huge stash of embroidery supplies. It is incredible, and the movers had been a bit shocked. But, I am used to that. I’d say that fully 25% of our household goods include things like my sewing stash. This, of course, includes my two antique treadle machines, two other vintage machines and tables, and the 5 machines I use almost daily for my embroidery, sewing and quilting. Yes, this is a passion for me.
It really is a great point my library of machine embroidery designs is housed on my pc. I believe that even my husband would be shocked by that! My favorite designs are these for free of charge-standing lace, followed by traditional florals, and then something 3D. He knows that I have collected several free embroidery styles, but he has no concept how much I have purchased at my favored embroidery design and style gallery. He does love the projects I build, although, so he has no explanation to complain about any of it.
All in all, he’s a good guy. He sees my fabric spilling out of boxes in the garage, gets out of the way when I spill pins and teases me, great naturedly, about my selection of thread. He helps when I’m working on tricky embroidery design and style patterns and remembers little technical points that I have a tendency to forget. He comes from a household of stitchers, so I guess I ought to never be shocked by any of this.
Nevertheless, I want he had done additional in the living area yesterday so that I could play with my embroidery machine these days alternatively of tomorrow!
