Welcome CLMQuilter, glad you decided to join the swap. Like you I am the only one representing my state so I am going to try to make enough for everyone to get one from Alaska. I think I might just plan for 175 right now being we still have til the 15th for sign up. I also have 35 boom blocks to get started. Everyone assures me these don't take long I hope they're right.
BTW, I did come home with a brand new 3160 JanomeQDC this is the full size lightweight machine. I'm excited to try it out. I really wanted a lightweight machine to carry to classes and UFO night. My other machine is great its just to heavy to carry all the time. I was tired and hurting the other day when I tried to bring it upstairs (I have a wheel carry case for it but its easier to carry it upstairsin the house) well wouldn't you know I stepped on one of the steps wrong and lost my balance backwards away went my 1300.00 dollar machine down the stairs, fortunately the carrier protected it this time, but I was sure I was going down with it and we were both going to be in bad shape.
I've taken pictures and my neighbor is suppose to come over later tonight or tomorrow so maybe she can help me figure out how to post them.
