Thanks everyone for the welcome... I oh sooo bad need to finish a quilt for my beother...I only started it 5 years ago. Feel free tp pester, taunt, bribe or whatever might work to get it done!!!!! The feed dogs on my machine don't drop down. I have a plate I can cover them with but I won't be doing anything fancy until I get a machine that regulates the stitches. It's to much puch-pull for me. I have Fibromyalgia and would rather do it by hand till I can let the machine do the hard work. 'Like hand quilting isn't hard work'. :lol: I love the Zen in quilting. I have been meditating for 3 years and love the calmness of both endevors!
If I were to live anywhere else it would be somewhere in the Bule ridge...but I don't do snow! So I guess Gainesville will be home another 40 (yikes!) years.
