    Or something like that ;)

    I started quilting and my poor little baseline machine couldn't handle it and crapped out on me. I've posted a few times about it here. A friend brought over a machine. Then before I could figure that one out, my grandfather gave me my deceased grandmother's machine which I cherish. That brings me up to three machines in my living room.

    Last weekend, the same friend who gave me that one machine brought over yet another machine -- in a cabinet! LOL

    It's a wealth of machines!

    I'd love to put my grandmother's machine into the cabinet but we can't figure out how to do it. But with the cabinet, I'm now able to put my grandmother's machine on top and watch TV while I quilt. Before this, I didn't have a surface in the living room to put the machine on.

    It's my opinion that:
    One can never have too many machines, or too much fabric or too much chocolate...
    Or too many JoAnns coupons!!!

    My thread does reproduce -- you know, all those hanging threads all over the place (your clothing, the floor, the cat, etc.)....maybe if I keep them, they'll grow up enough to be wound on spools......
