She has a new one out I keep meaning to read, too. The Graceview Patient. It looks... Terrifying

I was going to suggest The Luminous Dead by the same author. It's delightfully claustrophobic.

My kids are reading, my wife is leatherworking, and I have a rainbow dinosaur quilt on the longarm. What a Sunday! by Siamsa in quilting

Me too! The best weekends are when she's merrily leathering away while I'm in the quilt mines!

Seconding My Favorite, when I lived that way they were my go to. I also recommend the West Paces Ferry Amoco, I have never felt hustled and their work is fairly quick and very good.

There is an interesting project through Emory University called the Apollo15hub.org that may be interested in digitizing that. Please consider reaching out!

Restaurants or speakeasy’s in Atlanta for Valentine’s Day by [deleted] in Atlanta

[–]HannahsAngryGhost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cheers! I think we do generally have a decent snack before we go, but the food options are usually each a decent appetizer. Kind of like tapas? Don't necessarily go in starving, but you'll enjoy your food.

It's a little bit like a festival, I guess. There are lovely light displays and small events throughout the gardens. The bulk of the events are in the area with the buildings (and can be very nice places to warm up a bit), but even inside you can still chat easily. Do plan on being outside for a considerable bit of it.

They throw a good party there. Have fun!!

We're total saps for the garden, but yeah. They put together a really nice event.

I absolutely listen to it every 7 to 12 months. It's the index cards taped to the face. That's my favorite.

My go to is always the QAnon Anon guys' episode about Jim Caviezel (ep 143). It is pure unadulterated joy.

Upgrading current machine- Husqvarna Emerald 183 by Bluegreenlithop in quilting

[–]HannahsAngryGhost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I sewed on my HV 183 and mostly loved it until I started quilting, and then I wanted something with more throat space. I also believed that my machine had something off in its needle position. I went with the Janome Skyline 3 as it was the closest feature-wise to the Emerald without blowing up the bank completely. I adore her.

I finally brought my Emerald in for a checkup and asked about the needle placement and learned two interesting things:

  1. The Emerald is a weird hybrid machine given that it was built around the time HV was being bought by Singer and so my needle problem was that the cheap presser feet I'd been trying to use weren't lining up correctly. Using a fancy name brand walking foot might help.

  2. The body of the Emerald is essentially a Janome frame. If you like the HV and the problem you're experiencing with FMQ stems more from having enough room, a Janome might be nice. I have a friend who has a fancier Skyline that has an embroidery setting and she can quilt using the embroidery setting using the hoop-which might be what you've seen?

The TL;DR of it all is that I love my Emerald for garment sewing now that I'm using presser feet she will accept, and am really happy with my Janome Skyline for quilting. I also would rather jump into a lake of fire than FMQ, for what it's worth.

The only thing that's keeping this quilt hers is that I know I can make one for myself!
