We all know your pain. Each and everyone of us hate something about quilting , whether it be picking out just the right fabric, cutting it, or putting on the binding. Last week I was ready to sell all my quilting supplies and go into something more peaceful like cross stitch. Why? Because for months my machine I quilt on (Janome 1600P) had been skipping stitches left and right and I was spending all my time ripping out stitches and cussing. Machine has been in the shop twice and for regular sewing it's o.k....just not free motion quilting. So the problem is me right? I keep trying, but can't send ME back to the shop for repairs! LOL I have enough quilts to decorate the house, family members all have quilts....but I do Project Linus also and love doing those little quilts to brighten a child's face.
