Fun with inanimate objects

Now my new machine is away getting fixed and my old one is humming along like a champion.
I'm not yet up to date but I'm getting there.
I went to Spotlight yesterday, such a long time  since the last visit,  I bought some medium blue fabric for yet another pattern I saw in a magazine, I intend to alter the pattern somewhat making it much easier,so it will be all mine.. I also bought heaps of batting for a Queen size quilt I've made over the past year or so.

Fun with tension

Now, I have realised that the problem with the old machine was the tension, the needle thread was way too loose.  The new machine has the same problem..I have wasted  lots of thread trying to  correct the problem, not to mention time.. I.m way behind on my plans.
