    While at a antique car show for a week I solved the problem of being bored. 2 days I had a craft show space to sell my bags. I had cut out squares to put together charity baby tops while I was vending. My FW worked well, and it started lots of conversations.

    I really did sew the fabric. I put the quilt under the machine so it would show up on the black table.

    Starting conversations is a great selling technique. Looks like you could write the book! Good idea!

    What kind of antique car do you have? We have a 66 Mustang - I learned to drive in one.
