I did take a quilting class from her last Fall at PIQF (in Santa Clara, CA) and that helped to perfect my technique. Not that my technique is perfect, but my stitches got smaller! :roll:
I did look online at the LQS's around me and they did have the Aunt Becky. For around $5.00 it might be worth a try.

As a matter of fact they were slightly cheaper, but I figured gas and all it reaqlly didn't make a difference.


Great to hear! The only thing I wonder is if you need that metal thimble?? I can only use the leather thimbles.
