Thanks for that wonderful idea Melinda! I had never thought of index cards! I bought a new machine and can't use my 1/4" foot any longer. I've decided that after last night, I've suffered enough and will look for one for my new machine.

Good luck and remember, we are doing this for fun! If things don't line up right, it's not the end of the world!
