Liked the video. Will have to try it. Geri, I've sewn many times standing up. Had my sewing machine on the workbench one day and needed to do a couple quick stitches. Have also done some quick stash busting demo to DH. Now if he uses the portable, he moves it to the workbench. Oh Well!

Yes, you r probably right. It is later today, I did not " experiment", but now reading, I think what you say is what will happen with my "thought".

I really enjoyed watching Rob Appell--always great to see a man sewing and giving his take on the subject. He is high energy and I think he appeals to young and older sewers. He brought some new ideas to quilt making. I look forward to what other ideas he brings to us.
