Default How many can you name?

Just got the fabric my sister brought me from vacation. "Mrs. Sew & Sew" by Dan Morris for RJR fabric, 2010. Hope my pic come through.

Too far for me too with the price of gas it would take. Looks like the decals are pretty nice.

FYI - I've decided that to make more room in my sewing room I'm going to return the Singer 15-91 (in a cabinet) to my friend. In it's place I would like to find a really cool looking/cool colored 15 clone in a portable case. I will use it only for FMQ & can swap out machines in my sewing center when I need it. So if any of you have one or see one for sale...please let me know.

What great fabric. It would make great covers for some of my machines. Have fun with it

My son is very impressed with the new board. He says the owner has made a very helpful and needed update while keeping it simple for folks like me, the internet illiterate. Just love my kid!
My son said the same thing when he came over to show me how to navigate the new site. He said I should be more willing to change with the times. I guess I am just getting old to to keep up with the new tech stuff.

He told me that the quote signature area just needs to be resized.

I'm going to play with my link to my blogspot to see if I can resize it.
Haha - My grandson (6 yo) showed me something on the computer the other day that I didn't know!! Kids grow up with computers at home, and it's as natural as riding a bike!!

Hey Glenn -- can you take a quick look at the 15 in treadle cabinet I posted pic of a few pages back & give me some tips on redoing the finish? It's old varnish that has cracked and chipped. No damage to the wood at all. Thanks!

Hey...did anyone notice the Blog This Post button? And the Blog Entries indicator under your avatar? Those are what "My Pages" was previously.

Red face I have started using my Singer 99 and am loving it.

I have updated my machine with a walking foot, 1/4 foot and free motion foot. Today I set it up for free motion and it works like a charm. So no more looking for a new machine !?!?!?!? I would post a picture if I could figure out how to post one!?!?!?
