Everytime I use my new machine to quilt it something goes wrong with my machine. Jumped stitches, alarms for broken thread, needle breaks. I'm determined to finish. Once again I've laid it aside. Maybe even seven year after our divorce I still have bitterness. Whatever the reason I'm ready to burn the bad quilt.
