Day 2 Seasonal Table Runner

I'm pooped!

I got home, iced & elevated my foot and fell asleep instantly.

I slept for ALMOST 2 HOURS.

Only waking due to a leaky ziplock.

Day 2 with Jan & Judy Niemeyer's techniques went very well.

Today's results...

(The color is off...but you get the idea)

If you're planning to take a JN paper piecing class, I recommend 2 days.

At least.

It's very intense...extremely detailed & repetitive.

I felt like I was relearning how to sew.

Today went so much smoother than yesterday.

I only ripped ONE seam all day.

I got 3 times as much done.

And I hardly needed any help.

I'm going to watch for more opportunities to learn more of her techniques.

If I could work with Jan again, that would be ideal. 

That's asking a lot as the guild brought her in from Houston.

On a less positive note...I busted my foot up at the very end of class.

I think (hope) it's just a bad bruise.

Slightly puffy and uncomfortable when I put weight on it.

Frannie was alone for 2 days, getting only one long walk in yesterday.

Now all I can do is dodder along til she gets things done.

She is not amused.

Neither am I...it's my sewing foot!

Not sure if I'll attempty to sew a bit later, or wither on the couch til bedtime.

I'd love to go directly to bed...but it's the season finale of Parenthood!

Thanks for stopping by...
