I thanked him several times while he was here setting it up. He said if he could use it then he knew I would be able to. Just a very sweet man. When my friend mentioned me to him she told him that we had 5 kids. He said well, then she will get a lot of use out of it for those kids.

I have his address and will be sending him a Thank You card. Owning a quilting machine is a dream that I never thought would happen. ;)

Thanks for sharing in my fun.

Hugs,
Angie


:-D :-D :-D Maybe you could make him a nice quilt in menory of his wife and the young man that was killed. How sad, but it was so nice of him to give you the machine. Huggies, Fay
