I've made a test block nearly a month ago

when my quilty friend Kristine and I

made a plan to make a pillow.

We need nine blocks altogether.

I moved my sewing machine, rotary cutter, mat,

iron and such to the dining table

as my sewing room gets reeeeeally warm

 in the afternoon :(

Ok, I'm good to go!

Oh, what's that?

It's a spool of Presencia thread.

While I keep buying Mettler thread/875 yds,

My another quilty friend Lin suggested me

to try this one comes with a huge cone

at a great price at LQS.

I was little shy to jump onto that

new thread to me

as I was not for sure if my old buddy

BERNINA machine would like that.

So I got this smallest spool just for a test use

and have been using since a couple of days ago.

It's finer and making

pretty good stitches with my machine.

I love it!
