Below is the email I just got. Mom is in California and my birthday is June 29th. What else might she send other than a sewing machine from this store???? I think I have no choice now but to plan my next quilt, right? You don't know how tempted I am to call the store since Mom won't fess up.

LOL start planning that quilt!

Hope it is not a vacuum as that would be really hard to sew with :) Seriously, though the package size certainly looks about right for a sewing machine. Post pics when it arrives. And Happy Birthday early.

Guess we'll all just have to wait and see!

Whatever it is, it should be fun finding out. Hope it is the sewing machine though.

how exciting

Happy Birthday, early! I can't wait to find out. Thanks for sharing your birthday suspense with us!

wow, those dimensions certainly sound like a sewing machine ~ actually, those are pretty much the dimensions of my embroidery machine when I got it (I always keep boxes) ~ also the size of my serger box... hmmmm, have you hinted around anything?

BTW happy birthday early, my bday is the day before yours, and my name is Dawn, too :)

The store is a Janome and Babylock dealer.

Just saying. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

maybe it's an embroidery machine?
