@Bill WHY on earth are you sewing 18 layers of denim fabric, this is not the way to go, you'll end up breaking it if you're not careful  :scream:

Hi Tina and welcome to TSP, this is one of the best sewing forums around i'm sure you'll find it really helpful on your sewing journey.

We do love to see :pics: of things that you make  :)

I've got a faraday box, my keys live in there unless i'm going out.

Can you use aluminum foil as a Faraday bag?
How many layers of foil to block RFID?
With a single slice of foil ~18"x12" held in front of the sensor, the badge is read at ~1" (a noticeable reduction in signal). With the foil folded in half and the badge in the fold so that it forms a single layer on both sides of the card, it was effective (could not read the badge).

I like the idea of a bookcase quilt as you can really personalise it  ::thinks::  another one on the to do list i think. Are all the of books appliqued on? I'm sure @realale will be able to help seeing as she made that lovely bookcase quilt recently  :)

Welcome to the forum.
I won't be much help as I believe in ...one sewist = one machine = one project at a time = zero mess and zero waste  :thumb:

@Anne Warren Don't believe a word of this , you may be one sewist but have as many machines as you can fit in your house, if you get fed up with a project, move on and come back to it later, we all have UFO, who cares about the mess and there's usually plenty of waste, oh and make sure you have a big huge stash of fabric  :laughing:
