With my sewing room restored (at least its contents on premise), I am off and running again. Meanwhile, I joined a new BOM with Shabby Fabrics called A-door-nament. August is the first month and it uses metallic thread. I got through the fusible piece and the piecing easy peazy. I seem to be frozen in with indecision when it comes to top stitching. I have decided to go with their metallic thread. Metallic thread is a new area. This project has been sitting in this status on my sewing table for two weeks now.
