A little more fabric out this week, and still nothing added. I made binding for the QOV mystery on Friday, and got that stitched to the front of the quilt, ready for hand stitching down on the back. Yesterday I prepared the backing for my moth wallhanging. That's now loaded on the longarm. I tried to start quilting, but was having problems with the bobbin thread breaking. I need to investigate that some more. I'm using machine embroidery thread for quilting; I've done that before without problems, so need to check to see if I've developed a rough spot on the bobbin case, or if I have a warped bobbin. Will need to spend some time troubleshooting today.

good luck with the trouble shooting.
It could be something as tiny as a piece of thread stuck in your bobbin case. I am sure you will find the problem and be quilting in no time. No fabric purchases for the month of January - Good job!
Hope you find the problem with the thread issue and can be quilting up a storm in no time today.
Hope you find the problem quick. Great numbers on your stash report!
GOOD LUCK! I had troubles quilting this week, too.
