This is online sewing class homework exploring our machine's zigzag stitches.
My machine is basic in the extreme with no stitch length selector, making my zigzags a bit different from the actual assignment. I have a Janome Jem Gold 2, a light portable machine, but again, very basic feature wise.

Zigzag ribbon pattern based on Zigzag Ribbon stitch in A Second Treasury of Knitting Patterns (p. 123) by Barbara G. Walker. The pattern was modified by adding yo's were the pattern called for a lifted increase to give it a more lacey look. The yarn overs almost disappear in the photo.

Here's my layout for the throw size quilt. I don't think a layed it out right, but with the next couple steps of instruction I'm sure I'll figure it out!
Hands-on training
Met behulp van een handige toolkit die bestaat uit Instructables trainden wij op 12 november 2014 onder andere docenten, schoolbegeleiders en onderwijsassistenten in het geven van deze ZigZag workshops. Op deze wijze willen we textiel-gerelateerd erfgoed levend houden en onder de aandacht brengen.
The ZigZag ticket provided by Trent Barton offers one person a days unlimited travel after 9am, Monday to Friday across their entire network. It can not be used on Skylink Derby & Leicester or Pronto.
It is available anytime of day on weekends and bank holiday Mondays.

My first completed quilt (note - definitely not the first quilt I've started!). I used Crazymomquilt's zigzag pattern and Oh Fransson's binding tutorial - both absolutely fabulous!
This little dose of heaven comes just before you start the final ascent into Hyalite Lake. Once you get here, it seems like ten minutes later you are up on top looking down.
This whole area is full of sweet falls, and on a day like today, few people.
I really like the diagonals that the rocks and water create throughout this image. It was nightmare for me to get it perfectly straight since my bubble level on applies to images shot in landscape(yes I need to update everything).
If someone knows what the name of this falls is, I would sure appreciate it. It is just past Shower Falls in Hyalite Canyon.
All done! Top fabrics from canadianquiltshop.com, backing is an Ikea duvet cover. Binding is Painter's Canvas in Lime.
Black and Yellow Garden Spider (Argiope aurantia)
When I start seeing these beautiful spiders I know that fall isn't far away. To me their unique web is a true harbinger of fall and cooler weather. I currently have two of these spiders in my yard, that I know about. Their webs are usually between two and eight feet off the ground so it's easy to watch these spiders in action.
The web of these spiders may be up to 2 feet (60 cm) in diameter. In the center is the web decoration or stabilimentum made from a dense zigzag of silk. The stabilimentum function is a subject of debate. Some believe it acts as camouflage for the spider, but it may also attract inspect prey or even warn birds of the presence of the otherwise difficult-to-see web.
This spider is a female as the males are much smaller and light brown in color. She will mate only once and produce between one and four egg sacks. Each egg sack may contain over 1,000 eggs.
She will die around the time we have our first hard frost, usually mid to late October. Next spring the baby spiders will exit the egg sack(s) with some staying nearby while others exude a strand of silk that gets caught in the breeze, carrying them further away.
