Oh my gosh, lookie here! My quilt has caused five pages of comments upon the Board. Thank you so very much. I am anxious to read every word; however, within two hours my out-of-town company will be here for the weekend and I do not have bed one made nor the sewing machine oiled. My niece is coming to use my machine for the weekend. Her machine will not pull a double flannel quilt she is making for Christmas so I invited her to use my big 820(the new series Bernina). She put herself through college working at a Levi jean factory so she is not scared of the machine and knows her way around a working horse. Unfortunately, the factory went to Mexico for her fellow workers but she worked there long enough until she got her teaching degree. She is a tenured 7th grade teacher now.
Happy stitching everyone and thanks again for the wonderful notes. :)
