Beep! ,,,Beep!...Beep!...

What a day. Hubby said the computer was making a beeping noise and I took a look at it. Every minute it was beeping. My first thought was my hard drive is dying. I went through everything trying to find out where it was coming from.

I called my dad and asked him. He said to restart the computer and see if it still beeped. If it still beeped put it in safe mode. It beeped in both. Sigh. My computer is cursed. I know it. Finally in frustration after a couple of hours I shut the dang thing off. Beep. Beep. Beep.

Great! I have a ghost of a computer now. Then it hit me. Something else is beeping not the computer. I look up and realize my TracFone is beeping to remind someone to charge it. I still have that stupid nonworking thing?? Sigh. I've spent all morning trying to figure out my computer and it's my TracFone.

I have been working on things. I have my snowman panel quilt done for my hubby. Minkee fabric backing included as well. I even bound it folding over the minkee. Here it is:

I've also done some lace on my Janome 350e.

My machine has eaten a couple of them. Nothing like 80 minutes gone down the drain. Sigh.

Love your snowman panel, and how brave of you to put Minkee on the back - it looks really good and I bet it is super cozy!

Ha ha ha .... I'm laughing with you... the computer thing sounds so much like something I would do...
The quilt is really nice. And it sounds so cozy with the Minkee back!
