So I normally only make flat things but I saw an idea a while back for a camper themed sewing machine cover. I actually started it a couple years ago but got bored with it and put it aside in favor of other projects. Well I came across it while I was setting up my quilting station and my new machine. First thought was ‘oh crap. My new machine is bigger and this won’t work.’ But I set out with the goal this week to get it done and after some redesign I figured out how to salvage most of what I had made previously and make it fit over my new machine.
Thursday was mostly planning but I did get the ‘windows’ made.
Yesterday I finished making the four main panels and got the larger sides quilted
Today I tackled the roof and back panel and started final assembly.
I think this is a good place to stop for the day and maybe finish tomorrow.

Good Morning

Raining right now and chance of t storms

2ndhandTacoman · Dec 29, 2024

Good morning, it's windy and 50°. The YT weather guys are already talking up the winter storm around Jan 12th. Words like 'historic' and 'deadly ' artic air, blah blah blah.

I better gas up the firewood truck, just to be safe. Nothing will stop that battle cruiser.

hardly noticed it. but then i rarely venture out uptown. they did have the lot across from the courthouse staged as a set when i had to go get my plates for chebby but it wasn't awful - still got a parking space right in front. they weren't actually filming that day, just setting up. saw a couple of flat bed trucks delivering a fleet of antique 20's cars and they had their outdoor set just off of the interstate at Feely.

Hi Dewayne,
I have been going down the bladder cancer treatment road since February of this year. 4 TURBT’s, 12 BCG’s (2 sessions, 6 weeks each) and just started a clinical trial for a new delivery method for chemo for NMIBC. let me know if you want to talk. Best wishes for your recovery.
