#happyposithoughtmonday Isn't Brene Brown an amazing lady? I just love her.
Hands up, who here struggles with perfectionism? ME! It's true. As a quilter, it is very obvious if your points don't come together correctly in a block.
As Brene says, perfectionism is not the same thing as striving to be your best. Being your best is way more important. So, my fellow perfectionists, try to put these words into practice and I will see you next week. Make sure you follow me for more posithoughts.

#happyposithoughtmonday. I hope it's a great start to your week.
Are you waiting for the perfect time to start something (a business, a new job, writing a book, etc?) There is no perfect time and you just need to go for it. Wouldn't you regret if it was February 12, 2025 and you were still thinking about it?
What would a year mean to you where you were doing that something that you want to do? Something to think about as we start a new week.

#happyposithoughtmonday I hope you're having a good start to your week.
This quote is from Jay Shetty's book, Think Like a Monk. I found his book inspiring and really interesting at the same time. We simply don't create things without having first imagined them. Food for thought on this Monday. Have a great week everyone.

#happyposithoughtmonday Michelle Poler is an incredible author. Her book on fear called Hello, Fears changed me. If you haven't heard of her, check her out.
Comfort zones are our enemies. Stick with your comfort zone and you will never grow. I know fear is hard to get over, but wouldn't you rather break through your fear and get started with something, than never start at all? A little bit of tough love for this Monday. I hope you have a great week.

#happyposithoughtmonday I fell in love with #melrobbins a couple of years ago. I use her #5secondrule a lot when my brain starts to get out of control. At any rate, I just love this quote. Courage is definitely a push. Do you have big goals that you're working on the courage to get going? Me too! Keep this little nugget close by as you work on your plans. Have a great week everyone.

#happyposithoughtmonday everyone. I can't believe it's a new year. It's time for new things. Let's do this!
Do you take your sewing machine in once a year for its spa day or servicing? Check out my reel on why this may not be the best plan. Happy Saturday.
Let’s talk about sewing machines. You don’t need a fancy, expensive machine to get started quilting. Meet Bernie, my 40 year old Bernina 1120 that sews like a dream. Watch my reel for more and let’s get quilting!
If you have a sewing machine, have you ever looked at the manual? Your manual will help you when there is no video on YouTube. Make sure you keep it close by for those times when you need to figure out something. Make sure you follow me for more Sewing Machine Saturday videos. Have a great day.
Changing the needle on your sewing machine is important. You should be changing it every 8-10 hours of continuous sewing, when you get missed stitches, when your machine sounds different and when you break a needle. A little things makes a huge difference. Check out my reel on how to change your needle easily.
When you are threading your sewing machine do you have your presser foot up or down? It does make a difference. Check out my reel for my quick tip. Have a great day.
Check out my reel for my number one tip to avoid birds nests under your needle plate. Birds nests are caused by either your threads getting tangled or your fabric getting sucked under your needle plate. I hope this helps your sewing. Have a great day.
Happy Saturday. There is a lot of talk about using pins, clips or nothing all when sewing patchwork seams together. Watch my reel and decide for yourself which works best for you.
Chain piecing will save you time, especially when you are sewing multiples of the same block. Check out my reel to learn how. #chainpiecing #newquiltersociety #beginnerquiltingtipsandtricks
Check out my reel to see how you can use your automatic needle threader and get your needle threaded every time! I’m serious!
Do you have an automatic needle threader on your sewing machine that you never use? Catch my Sewing Machine Saturday reel tomorrow where I show you my top tip to get yours working each and every time. See you tomorrow
Week 3 of #100days100blocks2023 is in the books. What do you think of blocks 15-21?
