Well...
This will have to be my 29 day challenge
as
I am behind schedule to begin with!!
is
hosting this challenge.
Check out her blog to see other fabulous bloggers and their sewing!
I will try to keep up!!
(no promises)
So...If you are new to my blog....
My name is Christa Marcotte
Most of the time I look more like this....
We live on a organic grain and cattle farm in Saskatchewan.
When I am not haying, seeding or harvesting...
My favorite sport is Quilting.
I have a pretty amazing place to call my own!
It used to be three rooms that my dad and I renovated into a dream sewing space
There is light from all directions.
It's definitely my happy place.
If that wasn't enough space...
I recent took over another bedroom
to make space for a new to me long arm!!
It fits perfectly!!
So from where I sew.... we go to favorite machines!!
I have been a Pfaff girl for years
but
recently crossed the road to try a Bernina
Bernina 770QE
It's a beast of a machine
which
is good since my large cat, Lucy likes to supervise
But I also have a Reliable Industrial Machine
This puppy does 5000 stitches a minute.
I remember meeting some girls from Holland at a quilt show.
They were telling us about how an industrial machine can't be beat!
They were right.
If you do mostly straight stitch, I would recommend getting one!
So straight and fast!!
Many days I have my embroidery machine going
as
I stitch up a storm on my industrial!
I also have a few other retreat machines like a featherweight and a passport!
Brenda King...
This is how you make double time in a Torquay day!!
That was Day1, 2 and 3!!
