Today I played a very intense game of thread chicken. I was chain piecing my last 16 flying geese (out of 136!) and was watching as the top thread and the bobbin were both running low. When I say I just made it, wow, I really just made it.

#thread chicken #quilting #sewing #I really thought I was going to run out before I got to the end #the top and bobbin were both so close #(I did have another spool of that color so it was a low stakes game)#the zoom at the end of the video was my genuine surprise #I didn’t think I’d have enough but having enough by that little was crazy

I won thread chicken!

Got a little sewing done today - assembled the pockets and won a pretty much perfect game of thread chicken

There was nothing left on the spool, only that little piece next to the thread guide

The frixion pen shows up pretty badly on this fabric, hopefully it'll wash out. And if not... welp, I'm just gonna wear this at home anyway

Everything is nicely pressed so far, but my iron had a little accident and left some stains... again, hopefully it'll wash out. And I should probably descale my iron at some point

Pockets are the same fabric on the visible side, but white scraps on the other one

If I get sewing time tomorrow I might be able to get them done
